Zusammenfassung:A magnetic memory pillar cell and a method for implementing the magnetic memory cell for use in Solid-State Drives (SSDs) are provided. A magnetic memory cell includes a first conductor M1, and a second conductor M2, the second conductor M1 surrounded by the first conductor M1 and a programmable area using unpatterned programmable magnetic media. At least one of the conductors M1, M2 is formed of a magnetic material, and the conductor M2 is more conductive than conductor M1. An oxide barrier extends between the first conductor M1 and a programmable input to the magnetic memory pillar cell; and the oxide barrier is unpatterned.
