Abstract

The invention provides a composite seed layer structure and a magnetic random access memory storage unit thereof. The composite seed layer of the magnetic random access memory cell is located between the bottom electrode and the anti-parallel ferromagnetic superlattice layer. In order to ensure the normal operation of the magnetic random access memory, the lattice constant of the magnetic random access memory is highly matched with that of the anti-parallel ferromagnetic superlattice layer while the composite seed layer positioned below the anti-parallel ferromagnetic superlattice layer is required to have ultrahigh flatness. In the prior art, the composite seed layer generally adopts Pt grown through PVD, and the thickness of the composite seed layer is greater than 5nm. According to the invention, the composite seed layer of a multi-layer structure containing metal copper or copper nitride is adopted, the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy of the anti-parallel ferromagnetic superlattice layer is increased, and the production cost is reduced and the problem that thicker Pt is difficult to etch is avoided on the premise of ensuring the normal work of the magnetic random access memory.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of memory technology, in particular to a magnetic random access memory unit containing copper or copper nitride as a composite seed layer. Background technique [0002] In recent years, vertical spintronic torque magnetic memory (pSTT-MRAM) using Magnetic Tunnel Junction (Magnetic Tunnel Junction, MTJ) has the characteristics of non-volatility, high-speed reading and writing, large capacity and low energy consumption, and is considered to be the One of the most promising memories of the future. The basic structure of Magnetic Tunnel Junction (MTJ) includes bottom electrode, seed layer, antiparallel ferromagnetic superlattice layer, lattice barrier layer, reference layer, barrier layer, free layer, covering layer and top electrode. All the above structures are sequentially deposited by physical vapor deposition (Physical Vapor Deposition, PVD). [0003] Tunneling magnetoresistance effect (TMR) refers to the effect th...
