Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a memory cell array comprising an array of magnetic memory elements arranged in rows and columns; a plurality of electrodes, each of which is formed adjacent to a respective one of the array of magnetic memory elements; a plurality of first conductive lines, each of which is connected to a respective row of the array of magnetic memory elements along a row direction; and a plurality of composite lines. Each composite line includes a volatile switching layer connected to a respective column of the plurality of electrodes along a column direction; an electrode layer formed adjacent to the volatile switching layer; and a second conductive line formed adjacent to the electrode layer. The dimension of the volatile switching layer may be substantially larger than the size of the magnetic memory element along the row direction.

Claim (Index 8):
A method for manufacturing a memory array comprising the steps of:\n depositing a first conductive film layer on top of a substrate; patterning the first conductive film layer into a plurality of first conductive lines extending along a first direction; forming an array of magnetic memory elements imbedded in an insulating matrix on top of the plurality of first conductive lines; depositing a volatile switching film layer on top of the array of magnetic memory elements; depositing a top electrode film layer and a second conductive film layer on top of the volatile switching film layer; forming an etch mask on top of the second conductive film layer that includes a plurality of parallel lines aligned to the array of magnetic memory elements along a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction; and etching at least the second conductive film layer and the top electrode film layer with the etch mask thereon.
