Abstract
A magnetic memory device includes a spin-orbit torque (SOT) induction structure which may be strained and seedless and formed with a perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. A magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) stack is disposed over the SOT induction structure. A spacer layer may decouple layers between the SOT induction structure and the MTJ stack or decouple layers within the MTJ stack. One end of the SOT induction structure may be coupled to a first transistor and another end of the SOT induction structure coupled to a second transistor.
