An example device for performing a write operation using a spintronic Hall effect includes a Spin Hall Effect (SHE) structure, a Magnetic Tunnel Junction (MTJ) element, and processing circuitry. The MTJ element includes a free structure, a pinned structure, and a tunnel barrier arranged between the free structure and the pinned structure. The free structure comprises a plurality of free layers. The free structure is arranged with the SHE structure such that current in the SHE structure induces spin transfer into the free structure. The processing circuitry is configured to receive an instruction to set the MTJ element to a target state of a plurality of states and in response to receiving the instruction, generate electrical current through the spin Hall effect structure to modify a resistance of the MTJ element to correspond to the target state.
