Abstract
A method of manufacturing and resultant device are directed to an inverted wide-base double magnetic tunnel junction device having both high-efficiency and high-retention arrays. The method includes a method of manufacturing, on a common stack, a high-efficiency array and a high-retention array for an inverted wide-base double magnetic tunnel junction device. The method comprises, for the high-efficiency array and the high-retention array, forming a first magnetic tunnel junction stack (MTJ2), forming a spin conducting layer on the MTJ2, and forming a second magnetic tunnel junction stack (MTJ1) on the spin conducting layer. The first magnetic tunnel junction stack for the high-retention array has a high-retention critical dimension (CD) (HRCD) that is larger than a high-efficiency CD (HECD) of the first magnetic tunnel junction stack for the high-efficiency array. The second magnetic tunnel junction stack (MTJ1) is shorted for the high-retention array and is not shorted for the high-efficiency array.
