Abstract :
In this work, the heat interaction effect for adjacent cells is investigated. To simplify the process, five magnetic random access memory (MRAM) cells are chosen. All the cell sizes used here are in 100 nmtimes50 nm, but the distances between each other are changed (X-easy axis; Y-hard axis). The temperature rise is taken at the plane 5 nm above the heat elements for the central line across the three cells across the easy axis.
