Patent ID: 8841006

Claim:
A magnetic tunnel junction data storage device comprising: a first magnetic layer with a perpendicular magnetic anisotropy; an insulating layer deposited on the first magnetic layer; a second magnetic layer with a perpendicular magnetic anisotropy deposited on the insulating layer; a first in-plane magnetic layer deposited between the second magnetic layer and the insulating layer; and a first seed layer for inducing the formation of crystalline structure, deposited on the second magnetic layer wherein: at least one of the first and second magnetic layers has a compound having a chemical formula of (Fe 100-x Pd x ) 100-y B y or (Fe 100-x Pt x ) 100-y B y , B is a metal, and the first seed layer for inducing the formation of crystalline structure is made at least one of Pd, Pt, Au, or Fe and has a (100) texture.
