A memory includes: a magnet including a first and second portions adjacent in a first direction. The first portion has a first dimension in a second direction at a first position at which a dimension of the magnet in the second direction is maximum, the second direction perpendicular to the first direction, the second portion has a second dimension in the second direction at a second position at which a dimension of the magnet in the second direction is minimum, the second dimension smaller than the first dimension, the first portion is continuous to the second portion via a third position between the first and second positions, a curve corresponding to an outer of the magnet extends between the first and third positions, and the curve passes through a side closer to the central axis of the magnet than a straight line connecting the first and second positions.

Magnetic memory

A magnetic memory according to an embodiment includes: a magnetic member including a first to third magnetic parts, the first magnetic part including a first portion and a second portion and extending in a first direction from the first portion to the second portion, the second magnetic part extending in a second direction that crosses the first direction, and the third magnetic part connecting the second magnetic part and the first portion; a first nonmagnetic metal layer arranged along the third magnetic part, the first nonmagnetic metal layer including a first end portion on a side of the second portion, a position of the first end portion along the first direction being between positions of the first and second portions along the first direction; and a first and second electrodes supplying a current between the first and second magnetic parts via the third magnetic part.

According to one embodiment, a magnetic memory includes a magnetic body with two portions of a first dimension in a first direction which are spaced from each other a second direction and another portion that has a second dimension less than the first dimension in the first direction, which is between the two other portions. A circuit supplies a shift pulse to the magnetic body. The shift pulse includes a first pulse and a second pulse and moves a domain wall in the magnetic body along the second direction. The first pulse has a first pulse width. The second pulse has a second pulse width less than the first pulse width. The second pulse is supplied to the magnetic body after the first pulse.
