Defects in the free layer are considered to be the main cause of the balloon effect, but there is little insight into the synthetic antiferromagnetic (SAF) layer. To address this shortcoming, in this work, an optimized SAF layer was introduced in the perpendicular magnetic tunneling junction (pMTJ) stack to eliminate the low-probability bifurcated-switching phenomenon. The results indicated that the Hf field in the film stack improved significantly from ~5700 Oe to ~7500 Oe. A magnetoresistive random access memory (MRAM) test chip was also fabricated with a 300 mm process, resulting in a significantly improved ballooning effect. The results also indicated that the switching voltage decreased by 18.6% and the writing energy decreased by 33.7%. In addition, the low-probability stray field along the x-axis was thought to be the main cause of the ballooning effect, and was experimentally optimized for the first time by enhancing the SAF layer. This work provides a new perspective on spin-flipping dynamics, facilitating a deeper comprehension of the internal mechanism and helping to secure improvements in MRAM performance.
