Size-Dependent Switching Properties of Spin-Orbit Torque MRAM With Manufacturing-Friendly 8-Inch Wafer-Level Uniformity
We have developed a manufacturing-friendly spin-orbit torque magnetic random access memory (SOT-MRAM) technology in CMOS compatible 8-inch fab process. The proposed SOT-MRAM process technology resolves etching non-uniformity and reduction of high resistivity heavy-metal nanowire resistance issues. B...
