It is possible to reduce writing current without causing fluctuation of the writing characteristic. A magnetic memory includes: a magnetoresistance effect element having a magnetization pinned layer whose magnetization direction is pinned, a storage layer whose magnetization direction is changeable, and a non-magnetic layer provided between the magnetization pinned layer and the storage layer; and a first wiring layer which is electrically connected to the magnetoresistance effect element and extends in a direction substantially perpendicular to a direction of an easy magnetization axis of the storage layer, an end face of the magnetoresistance effect element substantially perpendicular to the direction of the easy magnetization axis of the storage layer and an end face of the first wiring layer substantially perpendicular to the direction of the easy magnetization axis being positioned on the same plane.
摘要:
A write word line is disposed right under a MTJ element. The write word line extends in an X direction, and side and lower surfaces of the write word line are coated with a hard magnetic material and yoke material. The hard magnetic material is magnetized by a surplus current passed through the write word line, and a characteristic of the MTJ element is corrected by residual magnetization. A data selection line (read/write bit line) is disposed right on the MTJ element. The data selection line extends in a Y direction intersecting with the X direction, and a part of the surface of the data selection line is coated with the yoke material.

A write wiring for writing information in an MTJ device is covered with a magnetic layer. The magnetic layer has a structure in which the growing direction of columnar grains is 30° or less from the normal-line direction of sidewalls, a structure in which grains are deposited of sidewalls, a structure in which grains are deposited like a layer, or a structure in which grains are amorphously deposited.

摘要:
A recording layer of an MTJ element is constituted by using a high crystal magnetic anisotropic material. A write wiring used to write data into the MTJ element is covered with a magnetic layer, and the write wiring and the magnetic layer are exchange-coupled with each other. A sum of a magnetic volume of the magnetic layer at a part opposed to the recording layer of the MTJ element and that of the recording layer is set smaller than a magnetic volume of the magnetic layer at any other part.
