Abstract:
A memory cell including information that is stored in the state of a magnetic bit (i.e. in a free layer, FL), where the FL magnetization has two stable states that may be canted (form an angle) with respect to the horizontal and vertical directions of the device is presented. The FL magnetization may be switched between the two canted states by the application of a voltage (i.e. electric field), which modifies the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy of the free layer.
