Off-axis electron holography for the direct visualization of perpendicular shape anisotropy in nanoscale 3D magnetic random-access-memory devices

Perpendicular shape anisotropy (PSA) and double magnetic tunnel junctions (DMTJs) offer practical solutions to downscale spin-transfer-torque Magnetic Random-Access Memory (STT-MRAM) beyond 20 nm technology nodes, while retaining their thermal stability and reducing critical currents applied. Howeve...
