Abstract

Methods and structures useful for magnetoresistive random-access memory (MRAM) are disclosed. The MRAM device has a magnetic tunnel junction stack having a significantly improved performance of the free layer in the magnetic tunnel junction structure. The MRAM device also utilizes a three-terminal structure, thereby allowing efficient writing of the bit without a concomitant increase in read disturb.
