Zusammenfassung:A magnetic random access memory cell includes a free layer structure and a reference layer structure including an anti-ferromagnetic layer structure pinning the magnetization orientation of the reference layer structure, the reference layer structure having a higher magnetic coercivity and being magnetically polarizable bidirectional and parallel to more than one axes by a magnetic field applied during a writing procedure so as to store information in the reference layer structure while heating the anti-ferromagnetic layer structure above its blocking temperature.
