Abstract

A magnetic memory device includes a first fixed layer maintaining a particular magnetization direction, a first non-magnetic layer, a free layer having perpendicular magnetic anisotropy and a variable magnetization direction, a second non-magnetic layer, and a second fixed layer maintaining a separate particular magnetization direction that is opposite to the particular magnetization direction of the first fixed layer. A resistance value of a first magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) element including the first fixed layer, the first non-magnetic layer, and the free layer is different from that of a second MTJ element that includes the second fixed layer, the second non-magnetic layer, and the free layer, based on a first portion of the free layer in the first MTJ and a second portion of the free layer in the second MTJ being separated by a domain wall.
