Abstract:
Techniques for improving magnetic device performance are provided. In one aspect, a magnetic device, e.g., a magnetic random access memory device, is provided which comprises a plurality of current carrying lines; and two or more adjacent stacked magnetic toggling devices sharing at least one of the plurality of current carrying lines in common and positioned therebetween. The magnetic device is configured such that at least one of the adjacent magnetic toggling devices toggles mutually exclusively of another of the adjacent magnetic toggling devices. In an exemplary embodiment, the magnetic device comprises a plurality of levels with each of the adjacent stacked magnetic toggling devices residing in a different level.
