Abstract

We have developed magnetic domain wall (DW) motion cells with a perpendicularly magnetized CoFeB free layer and underlying hard magnets. Low current writing operation of 0.16 mA and a high MR ratio of 80% were attained for the 130-nm-wide free layer. Write/read operation for a 16kb array and high endurance features were also confirmed.
