Abstract:
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 utilizes an in-plane polarization magnetic layer and a perpendicular MTJ in conjugation with a programming current pulse that comprises an alternating perturbation frequency.
