Patent abstract
The present invention to provide a new technique to reduce a variation in switching field of a magnetization free layer in a magnetic memory. The magnetic memory according to the present invention includes a magnetization free layer including a ferromagnetic layer having a shape magnetic anisotropy in a first direction and a magnetic strain constant is positive; and a stress inducing structure configured to apply a tensile stress to said magnetization free layer in a same direction as the first direction.
