Abstract:
1. A magneto-electronic device, comprising: a first electrode; a second electrode spaced apart from said first electrode; and an electric-field-controllable magnetic tunnel junction arranged between said first electrode and said second electrode, wherein said electric-field-controllable magnetic tunnel junction comprises: wherein said first and second ferromagnetic layers have respective first and second magnetic anisotropies that are alignable substantially parallel to each other in a first state and substantially antiparallel in a second state of said electric-field-controllable magnetic tunnel junction, wherein a current of tunneling electrons through said insulating layer is greater in said first state than said second state, and wherein said electric-field-controllable magnetic tunnel junction is configured such that at least one of a magnetic anisotropy energy, coercivity or domain wall velocity of at least one of said first and second ferromagnetic layers changes when a voltage is applied between said first and second electrodes.
