Description
図1に実施形態に係るスピントルク発振子の断面図を示す。図1に示すスピントルク発振子10は、下地層11、スピン注入層12、中間層13、発振層14、および電流狭窄層15がこの順に積層された構造を有する。電流狭窄層15は、酸化物または窒化物からなる絶縁部16、および前記絶縁部16を積層方向に貫通する非磁性金属からなる導電部17を有する。
図5(a)〜(f)は、実施形態に係るスピントルク発振子の製造方法の一例を示す断面図である。
図5(a)〜(f)に示した方法でスピントルク発振子を製造した。
実施例1と同様にして、主磁極20の上に、下地層11、スピン注入層12、中間層13、発振層14、金属層21、ハードマスク層22を成膜し、レジストパタン23を形成した。素子サイズが50nm×50nmとなるようにイオンミリングを行った。ハードマスク層22のパタンを通して酸素イオン注入することにより、Tiからなる金属層21を電流狭窄層15に変換した。バイアススパッタにより電流狭窄層15を6nmエッチングした。その後、電流狭窄層15上にシールド25を成膜してスピントルク発振子を製造した。実施例1から電流狭窄層15を約6nmエッチングしたことにより、ハードマスク層を除去する際に形成された酸化膜は全て除去されるため、残りの絶縁部16は酸素イオン注入により形成されたものといえる。

シールドを成膜する前のバイアススパッタにより電流狭窄層15を6nmエッチングした以外は、実施例1と同様にしてスピントルク発振子を製造した。実施例1からも電流狭窄層15を6nmエッチングすることにより、ハードマスク層を除去する際に形成された酸化膜は全て除去される。
