摘要:
A spin orbit torque (SOT) memory device includes an SOT electrode on an upper end of an MTJ device. The MTJ device includes a free magnet, a fixed magnet and a tunnel barrier between the free magnet and the fixed magnet and is coupled with a conductive interconnect at a lower end of the MTJ device. The SOT electrode has a footprint that is substantially the same as a footprint of the MTJ device. The SOT device includes a first contact and a second contact on an upper surface of the SOT electrode. The first contact and the second contact are laterally spaced apart by a distance that is no greater than a length of the MTJ device.
