nanoscale Materials for state-of-the-art Magnetic MeMory technologies the review deals with different materials science aspects of the state-of-the-art magnetic memory technologies, such as magnetoresistive random-access memory (MrAM), antiferromagnetic (AfM) memory, and skyrmion racetrack memory.Particularly, the materials with high perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA), such as cofeB, L1 0 -ordered Mn-and fe-based alloys, are considered (Sec. 1) regarding their applications in MrAM technology.furthermore, studies of AfM alloys, such as ferh, cuMnAs, Mn 2 Au, are reviewed (Sec.2) with an emphasis on application of these materials in AfM-memory technology.finally, the last (3 rd ) section of the review is concerning materials that could be used in skyrmion racetrack memory.
