Abstract

A spin orbit torque (SOT) memory device includes a SOT electrode having a spin orbit coupling material. The SOT electrode has a first sidewall and a second sidewall opposite to the first sidewall. The SOT memory device further includes a magnetic tunnel junction device on a portion of the SOT electrode. A first MTJ sidewall intersects the first SOT sidewall and a portion of the first MTJ sidewall and the SOT sidewall has a continuous first slope. The MTJ device has a second sidewall that does not extend beyond the second SOT sidewall and at least a portion of the second MTJ sidewall has a second slope.
