Abstract

Vertical memory cells and memory devices using the same are disclosed. In one example, a memory cell formed on a backend layer over a substrate is disclosed. The memory cell includes: a first electrode, a second electrode and a magnetic tunnel junction. The first electrode has sidewalls and a bottom surface disposed over the backend layer. The second electrode has sidewalls and a bottom surface in contact with the backend layer. The magnetic tunnel junction is formed between the first electrode and the second electrode. The magnetic tunnel junction is coupled to a sidewall of the first electrode and coupled to a sidewall of the second electrode.
