Abstract:
A magnetoresistive memory device assembly, comprising:a memory device supported by a substrate, the memory device including a non-magnetic composition between a pelt of magnetic compositions; a first electrically conductive line on one side of the memory device; the first electrically conductive line being configured to generate a magnetic field overlapping at least a portion of the memory device when current is passed through the first conductive line: a first magnetic material around a portion of an outer periphery of the first conductive line and configured to concentrate the magnetic field overlapping at least a portion of the memory device when current passes through the first conductive line; a second electrically conductive line on a side of the memory device in opposing relation to said one side the second electrically conductive line being configured to generate a magnetic field overlapping at east a portion of the memory device when current is passed through the second conductive line; and a second magnetic material around a portion of an outer periphery of the second conductive line and configured to concentrate the magnetic field overlapping at least a portion of the memory device when current passes through the second conductive line.
