Abstract: A multilayer free magnetic layer structure for spin-based magnetic memory is provided herein. The multilayer free magnetic structure is employed in a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) and includes antiferromagnetically coupled magnetic layers. In some cases, the antiferromagnetic coupling is mediated by RKKY interaction with a Ru, Ir, Mo, Cu, or Rh spacer layer. In some cases, low damping magnetic materials, such as CoFeB, FeB, or CoFeBMo are used for the antiferromagnetically coupled magnetic layers. By employing the multilayer free magnetic structure for the MTJ as variously described herein, the critical or switching current can be significantly reduced compared to, for example, an MTJ employing a single-layer free magnetic layer. Thus, higher device efficiencies can be achieved. In some cases, the magnetic layers of the multilayer free magnetic structure are perpendicular magnets, which can be employed, for example, in perpendicular spin-orbit torque (pSOT) memory devices.

A metal precursor may be a metal oxide suitable, which is chalcogenated when exposed to a chalcogen precursor at elevated temperature, for example in a chemical vapor deposition process.
