Abstract
Provided is a cache memory, including: a first field-effect transistor, a field-like spin torque layer underneath a magnetic tunnel junction, an electrode, and a second field-effect transistor sequentially arranged and connected; wherein the first field-effect transistor is configured to provide a writing current and to control the on-off of the writing current through a gate electrode; the field-like spin torque layer is configured to generate field-like spin torques for switching a first ferromagnetic layer of the magnetic tunnel junction; the magnetic tunnel junction includes a first ferromagnetic layer, a tunneling layer, a second ferromagnetic layer and a pinning layer arranged sequentially; the electrode is configured to connect the cache memory with the second field-effect transistor; and the second field-effect transistor is configured to control the on-off of the second field-effect transistor through the gate electrode to read the resistive state of the magnetic tunnel junction.
