摘要
A diode-free magnetic random access memory comprises two sets of conductive lines, an array of magnetic tunnel junctions at each intersection, and a peripheral circuitry. Such a simplified diode-free architecture described in this letter overcomes the diode-area constraint in the prior art and achieves a significant breakthrough in storage density.
