Abstract

A magnetic memory element includes a contact with a magnetic layer portion between a conductive layer portion and a non-magnetic layer portion. The magnetic layer has a magnetization perpendicular to the plane of the layers, and an angled conductive track-having a central portion extended by two arms, the contact being entirely arranged on the track. For each arm, a current flowing towards the contact along the median axis of the arm encounters the portion of the contact nearest to the arm primarily on the left thereof for one of the arms, and primarily on the right thereof for the other arm.
