Abstract
A magnetic memory device may include a substrate and a magnetic tunnel junction memory element on the substrate. The magnetic tunnel junction memory element may include a reference magnetic layer, a tunnel barrier layer, and a free magnetic layer. The reference magnetic layer may include a first pinned layer, an exchange coupling layer, and a second pinned layer. The exchange coupling layer may be between the first and second pinned layers, and the second pinned layer may include a ferromagnetic layer and a non-magnetic layer. The second pinned layer may be between the first pinned layer and the tunnel barrier layer, and the tunnel barrier layer may be between the reference magnetic layer and the free magnetic layer.
