Patent 10229724 was granted and assigned to Spin Memory on March, 2019 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
Methods and structures useful for magnetoresistive random-access memory (MRAM) are disclosed. The MRAM device has a magnetic tunnel junction stack having a significantly improved performance of the free layer in the magnetic tunnel junction structure. The MRAM device also utilizes a plurality of orthogonal spin transfer magnetic tunnel junction (OST-MTJ) stacks connected in series, with each OST-MTJ stack capable of selective activation by application of an external magnetic field, thereby allowing efficient writing of the bit without a concomitant increase in read disturb.
