Abstract:
A magnetoresistive memory device includes a first electrode, a second electrode, and a layer stack containing an electric field-modulated magnetic transition layer and a ferroelectric insulator layer located between the first electrode and the second electrode, The electric field-modulated magnetic transition layer includes a non-metallic magnetic material having a ferromagnetic state and a non-ferromagnetic state with a state transition therebetween that depends on an external electric field.
