  • Publication number: 20220114428
    Abstract: Disclosed is an operation method of a neural network element using a Hall voltage. The neural network element has a hole pattern portion, and the hole pattern portion has a cross shape. When a pulse current is applied, horizontal magnetic anisotropy is formed in a ferromagnetic layer by means of spin-orbit torque, and when an external magnetic field in a direction perpendicular to the pulse current is applied, the inversion of magnetization occurs by means of additional torque. The movement of a magnetic domain wall is performed by the inversion of magnetization, spin electrons applied thereby are scattered, and a Hall voltage is generated according to the anomalous Hall effect. The generated Hall voltage increases according to the number of applications of the pulse current or pulse voltage.
