Abstract

The invention discloses a storage element and a storage device. The storage element has a stacked structure including: a storage layer having magnetization perpendicular to the film surface and whose magnetization direction changes depending on information, and including a Co-Fe-B magnetic layer whose magnetization direction is applied by applying The current is changed to record information in the storage layer, the magnetization fixed layer has magnetization perpendicular to the film surface that becomes the reference of the information stored in the storage layer, and the intermediate layer is formed of a non-magnetic material and is provided in Between the storage layer and the fixed magnetization layer; the first oxide layer and the second oxide layer.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a storage element and a storage device having a plurality of magnetic layers and recording using spin torque magnetization switching. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of various information devices ranging from mobile terminals to large-capacity servers, higher performance improvements, such as higher integration, increased speed, have been pursued in elements constituting the devices such as storage elements and logic elements large and lower power consumption. In particular, semiconductor nonvolatile memory has made remarkable progress, and flash memory, which is a large-capacity file storage, has spread at a rate at which hard disk drives are being replaced by flash memory. At the same time, the research and development of FeRAM (Ferroelectric Random Access Memory), MRAM (Magnetic Random Access Memory), PCRAM (Phase Change Random Access Memory), etc. code storage or use them as working memor...
