  • Publication number: 20200028073
    Abstract: A magnetic tunnel junction with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA MTJ) is disclosed wherein a free layer interfaces with a tunnel barrier and has a second interface with an oxide layer. A lattice-matching layer adjoins an opposite side of the oxide layer with respect to the free layer and is comprised of CoXFeYNiZLWMV or an oxide or nitride of Ru, Ta, Ti, or Si, wherein L is one of B, Zr, Nb, Hf, Mo, Cu, Cr, Mg, Ta, Ti, Au, Ag, or P, and M is one of Mo, Mg, Ta, Cr, W, or V, (x+y+z+w+v)=100 atomic %, x+y>0, and each of v and w are >0. The lattice-matching layer grows a BCC structure during annealing thereby promoting BCC structure growth in the oxide layer that results in enhanced free layer PMA and improved thermal stability.

  • Publication number: 20200007252
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods, devices, systems, and storage mediums for live broadcast detection and data processing. In one exemplary embodiments, a user terminal device cooperates with a server and a camera device in a live broadcast system. The terminal device turns towards the camera device and outputs detection content within a detection time. It can be determined whether live broadcast content uploaded/captured by the camera device includes the detection content captured by the camera device within the detection time. If the detection content is found in the live broadcast content, it can be determined that unauthorized live broadcasting exists. Accordingly, corresponding measures can be taken to stop the unauthorized live broadcasting in a timely manner, which helps improve the security of user information.

  • Patent number: 10522745
    Abstract: A magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) is disclosed wherein a free layer (FL) interfaces with a first metal oxide (Mox) layer and second metal oxide (tunnel barrier) to produce perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) in the FL. In some embodiments, conductive metal channels made of a noble metal are formed in the Mox that is MgO to reduce parasitic resistance. In a second embodiment, a discontinuous MgO layer with a plurality of islands is formed as the Mox layer and a non-magnetic hard mask layer is deposited to fill spaces between adjacent islands and form shorting pathways through the Mox. In another embodiment, end portions between the sides of a center Mox portion and the MTJ sidewall are reduced to form shorting pathways by depositing a reducing metal layer on Mox sidewalls, or performing a reduction process with forming gas, H2, or a reducing species.

  • Patent number: 10522747
    Abstract: A laminated seed layer stack with a smooth top surface having a peak to peak roughness of 0.5 nm is formed by sequentially sputter depositing a first seed layer, a first amorphous layer, a second seed layer, and a second amorphous layer where each seed layer may be Mg and has a resputtering rate 2 to 30X that of the amorphous layers that are TaN, SiN, or a CoFeM alloy. A template layer that is NiCr or NiFeCr is formed on the second amorphous layer. As a result, perpendicular magnetic anisotropy in an overlying magnetic layer that is a reference layer, free layer, or dipole layer is substantially maintained during high temperature processing up to 400° C. and is advantageous for magnetic tunnel junctions in embedded MRAMs, spintronic devices, or in read head sensors. The laminated seed layer stack may include a bottommost Ta or TaN buffer layer.

  • Patent number: 10509074
    Abstract: A stimulus/response controller within a magnetic electrical test apparatus is configured for generating and transmitting stimulus waveforms to a high-speed DAC for application to a MTJ DUT. The response signal from the MTJ DUT is applied to an ADC that digitizes and transfers the response signal to the stimulus/response controller. The stimulus/response controller has a configurable function circuit that is selectively configured for performing evaluation and analysis of the digitized stimulus and response signals. The configurable functions are structured for performing any evaluation and analysis function for determining the characteristics of the MTJ DUT(s). Examples of the evaluation and analysis operations include averaging the stimulus and/or response signals, determining the differential resistance, the degradation times, failure counts, or the bit error rate of the MTJ DUT(s).

  • Publication number: 20190377080
    Abstract: In a vital sign sensor of the present invention, an antenna assembly radiates an oscillation signal generated by a SIL oscillator to an object in a form of a wireless signal and receives a reflected signal from the object, and the reflected signal can have the SIL oscillator injection-locked. The wireless signal radiated from the antenna assembly is transmitted to a demodulator for demodulation such that the vital signs of the object can be obtained. Additionally, an isolator of the antenna assembly is provided to prevent the SIL oscillator from receiving a clutter reflected from the demodulator and an environment where the demodulator is placed. As a result, the clutter can't influence the vital sign detection of the object.
