ABSTRACT:
An exemplary magnetic random access memory comprises a plurality of hardmasks, a plurality of magnetic memory elements each having been formed using a corresponding one of the hardmasks, and at least one conductor near the hardmasks. The conductor is capable of carrying a current to generate radio frequency electromagnetic fields absorbable by the hardmasks to heat the hardmasks to elevate the temperature of one or more of the magnetic memory elements to thermally assist in switching a magnetic orientation thereof.
