Patent ID: 10629649

Abstract:
According to one embodiment, a method of forming a magnetic memory device includes forming a source region including a first semiconductor material having a first conductivity above a substrate, forming an array of three-dimensional (3D) structures above the substrate, depositing a channel material on a surface of at least one sidewall of each 3D structure, depositing a gate dielectric material on the channel material on the surface of at least one sidewall of each 3D structure, forming a first isolation region in the cavity region above the substrate, forming a first gate region above the first isolation region in the cavity region, and forming a second isolation region above the first gate region, wherein a nth gate region is formed above a (n+1) isolation region thereafter until a top of the array of 3D structures, wherein each nth gate region is coupled to each nth perpendicular magnetic tunnel junction sensor of each 3D structure.
