Abstract

Methods of forming spin torque microelectronic devices are described. Those methods may include forming a free FM layer on a substrate, forming a non-magnetic layer on the free FM layer, forming at least three input pillars on the non-magnetic layer, and forming an output pillar on the non-magnetic layer to form a majority gate device.
