Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, features and advantages of the present disclosure more apparent and understandable, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure, and it is apparent that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments disclosed herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a spintronic device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the spintronic device includes: the magnetic tunnel junction structure comprises bottom electrodes 101 and 104, a spin-orbit coupling layer 102 arranged on the bottom electrodes 101 and 104, at least one pair of magnetic tunnel junctions 103 arranged on the spin-orbit coupling layer 102, wherein each magnetic tunnel junction 103 comprises a free layer 1031, a tunneling layer 1032 and a reference layer 1033 which are arranged from bottom to top in sequence, the magnetization directions of the reference layers 1033 of each pair of magnetic tunnel junctions 103 are opposite, and a top electrode 1034 is arranged on the reference layer 1033 of each magnetic tunnel junction 103.
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the materials of the reference layer 1033 and the free layer 1031 are one or more of CoFeB, Co/Pt, etc. ferromagnetic materials with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. The spin-orbit coupling layer 102 is made of one or more kinds of heavy metals such as Pt, Ta, and W. The bottom electrodes 101, 104 and top electrode 1034 are made of metals such as Ti/Au, Ti/Pt, Cr/Au, Ta/CuN, etc. More, the tunneling layer 1032 is made of MgO, Al2O3And the like.

Figure BDA0003302185800000051
The asymmetric shape of the magnetic tunnel junction 103 induces a certain shape anisotropy, and in combination with the DM antisymmetric exchange effect, a field-free deterministic switching of the magnetic tunnel junction 103 can be achieved, and unipolar switching can be achieved. When a current flows through the spin-orbit coupling layer 102, a spin current in a vertical direction is generated due to a spin hall effect of a heavy metal or a Rashaba effect of an interface, so that the free layer 1031 of the magnetic tunnel junction 103 is turned over. Because the magnetization directions of the reference layers 1033 of the two magnetic tunnel junctions 103 are opposite, the two magnetic tunnel junctions 103 always store opposite resistance states.
In the present disclosure, the straight sides of two magnetic tunnel junctions 103 of a pair of magnetic tunnel junctions form a predetermined angle with the axis of the spin-orbit coupling layer 102 in the length direction

Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a unipolar pulse synchronous inversion curve of a spintronic device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Setting a predetermined angle of intersection of a pair of magnetic tunnel junctions 103
Figure BDA0003302185800000054

When a read operation is performed, the write word line WWL is pulled low, turning off the first transistor 601, the read word line RWL is pulled high, turning on the second transistor 602 and the third transistor 603, while the source line SL is grounded, so that a current flows through the pair of magnetic tunnel junctions 103 via the bit line BL and the bit bar line/BL.
