Abstract

A memory cell is disclosed which includes a semiconductor layer, a first electrode coupled to the semiconductor layer, a second electrode coupled to the semiconductor layer, wherein the first and second electrodes are separated from one another along a first axis and wherein the semiconductor layer extends beyond the first axis along a second axis substantially perpendicular to the first axis, thereby forming a first wing, a third electrode separated from the semiconductor layer by an insulating layer, a first magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) disposed on the first wing, and a first read electrode coupled to the first MTJ.
