Abstract
A magnetic sensor cell including a magnetic tunnel junction including a reference layer having a reference magnetization oriented substantially parallel to the plane of the reference layer, a sense layer having a sense magnetization, and a tunnel barrier layer between the sense and reference layers. The sense layer includes an intrinsic anisotropy substantially perpendicular to the plane of the sense layer such that the sense magnetization is orientable between an initial direction perpendicular to the plane of the sense layer and a direction parallel to the plane of the sense layer; the intrinsic anisotropy having in anisotropy field being above 150 Oe.
