Abstract: A memory includes: a magnet including a first and second portions adjacent in a first direction. The first portion has a first dimension in a second direction at a first position at which a dimension of the magnet in the second direction is maximum, the second direction perpendicular to the first direction, the second portion has a second dimension in the second direction at a second position at which a dimension of the magnet in the second direction is minimum, the second dimension smaller than the first dimension, the first portion is continuous to the second portion via a third position between the first and second positions, a curve corresponding to an outer of the magnet extends between the first and third positions, and the curve passes through a side closer to the central axis of the magnet than a straight line connecting the first and second positions.

Abstract: A magnetic memory includes first magnetic members extending along a first direction. First and second wirings are spaced apart from the first magnetic members on a second end side of the first magnetic members. At least one of the first magnetic members is between the first and second wirings in a plan view from the first direction. A second magnetic member has a first portion facing the first wiring and electrically connected to a first magnetic member on one side and a second portion facing the first wiring on an opposite side. The second portion is electrically connected to another first magnetic member. A control circuit causes a current to flow through one of the first wiring or the second wiring when data is written into the first magnetic member that is between the first wiring and the second wiring.

Abstract: A storage device includes: a memory unit and a first pillar. The first pillar includes: a first region having a third portion between a first and a second portion respectively having a first and a second maximum diameter, and having a first minimum diameter, the first and second portions defining a first distance; a second region having a sixth portion between a fourth and a fifth portion respectively having a third and a fourth maximum diameter, and having a second minimum diameter, the fourth and fifth portions defining a second distance; and a third region between the first and second regions, having a ninth portion between a seventh and an eighth portion respectively having a fifth and a sixth maximum diameter, and having a third minimum diameter, the seventh and eighth portions defining a third distance shorter than each of the first and second distances.

Abstract: A magnetic memory of the present embodiment includes an electrode extending along a plane including a first direction and a second direction, a first wiring extending in the first direction, second wirings between the electrode and the first wiring, extending in the second direction and arranged in the first direction, first magnetic members each including a first part electrically connected to the first wiring and a second part electrically connected to the electrode, extending in a third direction, and being positioned between neighboring two of the second wirings when seen from the third direction, and a control circuit. When writing first information to one first magnetic member, the control circuit supplies first current to at least two second wirings positioned on one side of the one first magnetic member in the first direction.
