We propose the concept of a core-shell composite structure coupled antiparallel via dipolar interaction, as the storage layer in perpendicular-shape-anisotropy magnetic random access memory (PSA MRAM). Benefits compared with a standard PSA MRAM include a reduced write time and the stray field. CoFeB core with a Co shell (height 8 nm; diameters 14 and 20 […]

Louis Farcis est chercheur doctoral à SPINTEC. Son travail concerne les architectures non-conventionnelles pour réaliser des calculs à base de réseaux de neurones spintroniques. Son portrait a été réalisé par l’Institut de Recherche Interdisciplinaire de Grenoble, auquel est rattaché SPINTEC.

We study recurrent networks of binary stochastic Magnetic Tunnel Junctions (sMTJ), aiming at efficiently solving computationally hard optimization problems. After validating a prototyping route, we investigate the impact of hybrid CMOS+MTJ building block variants on the quality of stochastic sampling, a key feature for optimum search in a complex landscape. We carry out a functional […]

Cryoelectronics has the potential to become important in high-performance computing applications and in the context of quantum computing. For low-temperature operation, it becomes imperative to reduce power dissipation, and improved device efficiency could even offset the power consumption required for cooling. In magnetic memories, voltage-controlled magnetic anisotropy (VCMA) is a promising approach to minimize the […]
