Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of computer storage, in particular to a vertical magnetization MTJ device and STT-MRAM. Background technique
[0002] Spin Transfer Torque Magnetic Random Access Memory (STT-MRAM for short) is a new type of non-volatile memory whose core storage unit is an MTJ device. MTJ is mainly composed of reference layer, insulating barrier layer and free layer. The reference layer is also called the pinned layer, its magnetization direction remains unchanged, only the magnetization direction of the free layer is changed to make it the same direction or opposite to the reference layer.
[0003] MTJ devices rely on quantum tunneling to allow electrons to pass through insulating barrier layers. The tunneling probability of polarized electrons is related to the relative magnetization directions of the reference layer and the free layer. When the magnetization direction of the free layer is the same as that of ...
