Abstract
A magnetic tunnel junction device includes a pinned magnetic layer, a free magnetic layer, and a tunnel barrier layer between the pinned and free magnetic layers. The free magnetic layer includes a first free layer, a second free layer spaced apart from the tunnel barrier layer with the first free layer therebetween, and a spacer layer between the first free layer and the second free layer. The first free layer and the second free layer are antiferromagnetically coupled to each other by the spacer layer, and each of the first free layer and the second free layer has a magnetization direction substantially perpendicular to an interface between the free magnetic layer and the tunnel barrier layer. A thermal stability of the free magnetic layer is in a range of 0 to 15.
