Abstract

The invention provides a magnetic memory cell, which comprises a bottom electrode, a top electrode and a laminated structure located between the bottom electrode and the top electrode, and is characterized in that the laminated structure comprises a reference layer, a barrier layer, a free layer, a non-magnetic isolation layer and a phase change layer which are sequentially stacked, wherein the phase change layer changes between an antiferromagnetic phase and a ferromagnetic phase according to the phase change temperature, and when the phase change layer is a ferromagnetic phase, a bias magnetic field is provided for the free layer, so that the magnetization direction of the free layer deviates from the direction collinear with the magnetization direction of the reference layer; and the non-magnetic isolation layer is used for preventing the phase change layer and the free layer from generating magnetic coupling. According to the invention, the critical overturning current of the freelayer can be reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of magnetic memory, in particular to a magnetic memory unit and a magnetic memory. Background technique [0002] Magnetic Random Access Memory (MRAM) is considered to be the future solid-state non-volatile memory, which has the characteristics of high-speed reading and writing, large capacity and low energy consumption. Spin Transfer Torque Magnetic Random Access Memory (STT-MRAM), which utilizes spin current to realize magnetic moment reversal, is a common implementation form. [0003] The traditional structure of the storage unit of STT-MRAM is as follows figure 1 As shown, including the top electrode, the bottom electrode and the MTJ between them, during the STT-MRAM writing process, since the magnetization directions of the free layer and the reference layer are collinear, the initial stage needs to be generated by thermal disturbances in the free layer Random small angular deflection with a small init...
