Avalanche develops a 22 nn process node, as it aims to increase its MRAM memory density by 16X

Avalanche Technology announced that has achieved the phase-one milestone of its magnetic cell scaling project, as it aims to be able to produce higher-density space-grade MRAM. This cell size reduction, in concert with additional planned geometry shrink, will enable the increase in memory density by 16X.

Avalanche has successfully established high density MTJ array manufacturing in a high volume production environment at 22 nm process node, achieving an MTJ critical dimension (CD) of 40 nm with a pitch of 100nm and below. Avalanche says that through rigorous optimization of MTJ hard mask and etch processes, the dense array delivers low bit error rates, enabling a minimum cell size of 0.01 μm² and high yield, gigabit class monolithic chip production, with demonstrated scalability to 12 nm process nodes.

Russia sues RusNano's ex managers over the $125 million loss on the 2011 Crocus investment

Back in 2011, Russia's state-owned VC RusNano invested $125 million into MRAM developer Crocus, aiming to bring MRAM manufacturing into Russia. The project did not succeed, and the proposed fab never saw the light of day and Crocus did not stay in business.

According to a report in Russia, RusNano is now suing its former chief Anatoly Chubais, and other ex-managers, seeking $150 million in damages. It claims these losses were caused by "unreasonable and irresponsible decisions" made by the fund's managers.

Researchers develop the most advanced MRAM free layer to date

Researchers from the Institute of Science Tokyo (formerly Tokyo Tech), in collaboration with Western Digital, developed a new MRAM free layer with a giant perpendicular magnetic anisotropy, with the potential scaling to CMOS 5 nm process. This is said to be the most advanced MRAM free layer to date.

The researchers explain that by using the Boron-rich Co19Fe56B25 layer in combination with the Boron-blocking Mo underlayer and the spinel MgAl2O4 oxide layer, they have realized giant perpendicular magnetic anisotropy in CoFeB with Hk as high as 17.5–19.5 kOe (x 3 improvement) and Keff as high as 6.9 -9.4 × Merg cm−3 (x 2 improvement).
