摘要：

Three Giant Magnetoresistive Random Access Memories (GMRAM) using different device shapes have been simulated. Tapered bits were found to provide the lowest switching thresholds while maintaining bit stability. The effect of edge roughness were found to have lower switching fields but also have limited output signals.
