SOT-MRAM To Challenge SRAM
By Bryon Moyer - 13 Jan, 2022 - Comments: 1

In an era of new non-volatile memory (NVM) technologies, yet another variation is poised to join the competition — a new version of MRAM called spin-orbit torque, or SOT-MRAM. What makes this one particularly interesting is the possibility that someday it could supplant SRAM arrays in systems-on-chip (SoCs) and other integrated circuits. The key advantages of SOT-MRAM technology are the pr... » read more

Spin–orbit torque engineering in β-W/CoFeB heterostructures with W–Ta or W–V alloy layers between β-W and CoFeB

Field-free spin-orbit torque-induced switching of perpendicular magnetization in a ferrimagnetic layer with a vertical composition gradient
By Technical Paper Link - 04 Jan, 2022 - Comments: 0

Abstract "Current-induced spin-orbit torques (SOTs) are of interest for fast and energy-efficient manipulation of magnetic order in spintronic devices. To be deterministic, however, switching of perpendicularly magnetized materials by SOT requires a mechanism for in-plane symmetry breaking. Existing methods to do so involve the application of an in-plane bias magnetic field, or incorporation o... » read more

By Technical Paper Link - 28 Feb, 2021 - Comments: 0

ABSTRACT "Spin-orbit-torque (SOT) devices are promising candidates for the future magnetic memory landscape, as they promise high endurance, low read disturbance, and low read error, in comparison with spin-transfer torque devices. However, SOT memories are area intensive due to the requirement for two access transistors per bit. Here, we report a multibit SOT cell that has a single write chan... » read more
