Abstract:
1. A method of forming an array of magnetic random access memory (MRAM) devices , the method comprising: forming a first set of substantially mutually parallel conductors; forming a plurality of MRAM devices defining a first axis and a perpendicular second axis, each device positioned adjacent a corresponding conductor of the first set of conductors and such that the first axis of each MRAM device is oriented substantially parallel with the corresponding conductor of the first set; and forming a second set of substantially mutually parallel conductors positioned such that each MRAM device is adjacent a corresponding conductor of the second set and wherein the second set of conductors are further arranged to extend at an angle α with respect to the second axis of the MRAM devices such that the first and second sets of conductors are arranged asymmetrically with respect to the first and second axes.
