Abstract
A magnetic device includes a seed pattern, a reference magnetic structure on the seed pattern, a free magnetic pattern on the reference magnetic structure, and a tunnel barrier between the reference magnetic structure and the free magnetic pattern. The reference magnetic structure includes a synthetic antiferromagnetic (SAF) structure including a first fixed pattern in contact with an upper surface of the seed pattern, an antiferromagnetic coupling pattern in contact with an upper surface of the first fixed pattern, and a second fixed pattern in contact with an upper surface of the antiferromagnetic coupling pattern; a nonmagnetic pattern in contact with an upper surface of the second fixed pattern; and a polarization reinforcement magnetic pattern in contact with an upper surface of the nonmagnetic pattern.
