Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method and system provide a magnetic junction usable in a magnetic device. The magnetic junction includes a plurality of magnetic layers including a nonmagnetic spacer layer. The magnetic junction also includes at least one diffusionless transformation layer. The magnetic junction is configured to be switchable between a plurality of stable magnetic states when a write current is passed through the magnetic junction.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
We claim: 1. A magnetic junction for use in a magnetic device comprising: a nonmagnetic spacer layer; and at least one diffusionless transformation layer, the at least one diffusionless transformation layer being configured to undergo at least one diffusionless transformation, the at least one diffusionless transformation being configured to occur in a temperature range in which the nonmagnetic spacer layer crystallizes, the temperature range being greater than an operating temp…
