Abstract

See full text

A multi-bit magnetic random access memory (MRAM) cell including a magnetic tunnel junction including: a first magnetic storage layer, a second magnetic storage layer, a magnetic sense layer, a first spacer layer between the first magnetic storage layer and the magnetic sense layer, and a second spacer layer between the second magnetic storage layer and the sense layer. The first and second storage magnetization are switchable between m directions to store data corresponding to one of m2 logic states, with m>2. The present disclosure further concerns a method for writing and reading to the MRAM cell and to memory devices including multi-bit MRAM cells.
