Abstract

The invention provides a memory cell with non-uniform magnetization. The memory cell comprises a spin Hall effect layer and two parallel magnetic tunnel junctions located on the surface of the same side of the spin Hall effect layer, each magnetic tunnel junction comprises a free layer, a barrier layer and a reference layer which are sequentially stacked in the direction away from the spin Hall effect layer, and the two reference layers have fixed magnetization directions. The two magnetic tunnel junctions have different shapes, or the two magnetic tunnel junctions have the same shape and have different arrangement modes on the spin Hall effect layer, so that the slopes of easy magnetization axes of the two magnetic tunnel junctions are opposite in positive and negative directions, and the two free layers show opposite magnetization directions after the spin Hall effect layer is electrified. After the free layers in the two magnetic tunnel junctions are electrified, an external magnetic field is not needed, and the two magnetic tunnel junctions are always in a complementary resistance state and read signals to realize differential storage through currents in different directions, so that the area of a storage unit can be saved, and the cost is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of memory, and in particular, to a non-uniformly magnetized storage unit. Background technique [0002] Spin-orbit torque magnetic memory (SOT-MRAM) is one of the more promising memory devices in the future because of its high write speed and low power consumption. [0003] The SOT-MRAM device unit consists of a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) and a spin Hall effect layer (SHE). MTJ includes a free layer, a barrier layer, and a reference layer. The magnetization direction of the reference layer is fixed, and the magnetization direction of the free layer is variable. When the free layer and the reference layer are parallel, the MTJ exhibits a low resistance state; when the free layer and the reference layer are antiparallel, the MTJ exhibits a high resistance state. When the current flows through the spin Hall effect layer, the magnetic moment of the free layer is reversed by the assistance of an ex...
