SPIN-ORBIT-TORQUE MAGNETIZATION ROTATIONAL ELEMENT, SPIN-ORBIT-TORQUE MAGNETORESISTANCE EFFECT ELEMENT, AND MAGNETIC MEMORY
First Claim
1. A spin-orbit-torque magnetization rotational element, comprising:
- a first ferromagnetic layer; and
a spin-orbit torque wiring in which a first surface faces the first ferromagnetic layer and a long axis extends in a first direction when viewed in plan view from a lamination direction of the first ferromagnetic layer,wherein the first surface spreads along a reference plane orthogonal to the lamination direction of the first ferromagnetic layer,the spin-orbit torque wiring contains a first virtual cross-section which passes through a first end of the first ferromagnetic layer in the first direction and is orthogonal to the first direction and a second virtual cross-section which passes through a second end of the first ferromagnetic layer in the first direction and is orthogonal to the first direction, andan area of the first virtual cross-section is different from an area of the second virtual cross-section.
