Patent number: 11922985Abstract: A magnetic memory device is provided. The magnetic memory device includes a spin orbit torque (SOT) source configured to generate SOT, and a magnetic fine wire of which one end contacts a main surface of the SOT source. A direction of SOT generated by the SOT source is perpendicular to a direction in which the magnetic fine wire extends, and a magnetic domain in the magnetic fine wire is parallel to the direction in which the magnetic fine wire extends.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2021Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Syuta Honda, Yoshiaki Sonobe

Patent number: 11309006Abstract: A magnetic memory device includes a first magnetic structure having a magnetic anisotropy, a read electrode that is on an end of the first magnetic structure and configured to sense a first magnetic moment of the first magnetic structure and to convert the first magnetic moment to an electric signal, a second magnetic structure spaced apart from the first magnetic structure, the second magnetic structure having a magnetic anisotropy, and a write electrode that is on an end of the second magnetic structure and configured to change a second magnetic moment of the second magnetic structure, based on the electric signal. The magnetic memory device executes operations of writing, moving, and reading data on almost the entire region of the magnetic structure in a more efficient manner, compared with the conventional magnetic memory device.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 2020Date of Patent: April 19, 2022Assignee: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Syuta Honda, Yoshiaki Sonobe

Publication number: 20220115049Abstract: A magnetic memory device includes a first fixed layer maintaining a particular magnetization direction, a first non-magnetic layer, a free layer having perpendicular magnetic anisotropy and a variable magnetization direction, a second non-magnetic layer, and a second fixed layer maintaining a separate particular magnetization direction that is opposite to the particular magnetization direction of the first fixed layer. A resistance value of a first magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) element including the first fixed layer, the first non-magnetic layer, and the free layer is different from that of a second MTJ element that includes the second fixed layer, the second non-magnetic layer, and the free layer.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 6, 2021Publication date: April 14, 2022Applicant: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yoshiaki SONOBE, Syuta HONDA

Patent number: 11302373Abstract: A race track magnetic memory device includes a magnetic fine wire having a plurality of magnetic domains, a magnetic tunnel junction element comprising a pinned layer and an insulating layer, and a spin-orbit torque (SOT) generator. An easy axis of the magnetic fine wire is substantially perpendicular to a contact surface of the magnetic fine wire and the SOT generator. The magnetic tunnel junction element and the SOT generator are disposed on a magnetic domain write region of the magnetic fine wire. Data is written by generating spin-transfer torque at magnetization of the magnetic domain write region by flowing a first current in the magnetic tunnel junction element and by generating spin-orbit torque at the magnetization of the magnetic domain write region by flowing a second current in the SOT generator.Type: GrantFiled: October 21, 2020Date of Patent: April 12, 2022Assignee: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yoshiaki Sonobe, Syuta Honda, Teruo Ono
