Claim 17:
18. A device comprising a plurality of magnetic tunnel junction NOR strings arranged along a vertical direction and over a substrate, wherein each magnetic tunnel junction NOR string among the plurality of magnetic tunnel junction NOR strings comprises:
a respective semiconductor material layer including a semiconductor source region, a plurality of semiconductor channels that are laterally spaced apart along a second horizontal direction that is perpendicular to a first horizontal direction, and a plurality of semiconductor drain regions that are laterally spaced apart from the semiconductor source region by a respective one of the plurality of semiconductor channels and arranged along the second horizontal direction;
a plurality of magnetic tunnel junction memory cells in contact with a respective one of the plurality of semiconductor drain regions and arranged along the second horizontal direction; and
a metallic bit line contacting each of the plurality of magnetic tunnel junction memory cells within a respective magnetic tunnel junction NOR string and laterally extending along the second horizontal direction.
