MEMORY CELL WITH UNIPOLAR SELECTORS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18353290 titled 'MEMORY CELL WITH UNIPOLAR SELECTORS

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an integrated chip that includes a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) and two unipolar selectors.

  • The integrated chip has a MTJ, which is a type of device used in magnetic memory storage.
  • The MTJ is located on a first electrode within a dielectric structure over a substrate.
  • The chip also includes two unipolar selectors, which are devices used to control the flow of electrical current.
  • The first unipolar selector is electrically connected to the first electrode.
  • The second unipolar selector is also electrically connected to the first electrode.
  • The first unipolar selector extends laterally between a vertical line intersecting the MTJ and the substrate.
  • The second unipolar selector extends laterally between a vertical line intersecting the second unipolar selector and the substrate.


Original Abstract Submitted

In some embodiments, the present disclosure relates to an integrated chip. The integrated chip includes a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) disposed on a first electrode within a dielectric structure over a substrate. A first unipolar selector is disposed within the dielectric structure and is electrically coupled to the first electrode. A second unipolar selector is disposed within the dielectric structure and is electrically coupled to the first electrode. The first unipolar selector laterally extends between a first vertical line intersecting the MTJ and the substrate and a second vertical line intersecting the second unipolar selector and the substrate.
