Abstract

A tunable resistance device and methods of forming the same include a magnetic fixed layer having a fixed magnetization, a magnetic free layer, and a non-magnetic conductive layer directly between the magnetic fixed layer and the magnetic free layer. The magnetic fixed layer, the magnetic free layer, and the non-magnetic conductive layer are formed in a lattice of wires, with each wire in the lattice being formed from a stack of the magnetic fixed layer, the magnetic free layer, and the non-magnetic conductive layer.
