Title:
MAGNETIC MEMORY CELL AND MAGNETIC RANDOM ACCESS MEMORY
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2008091794
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To provide a magnetic memory cell and a magnetic random access memory, of high reliability and low power consumption.

An upper electrode 108 of which a connection area 112 is smaller than the area of a ferromagnetic free layer 101 of a magnetic memory cell 1 is connected to the ferromagnetic free layer 101. A nonuniform magnetic field is generated on the magnetic memory cell by applying a current 107, to actualize a spin transfer torque magnetizing inversion of low current and less miswriting rate.
