ABSTRACT:
A random access thin film magnetic memory is provided. Individual memory elements, characterized by serrated edges, are separated by connecting regions. Each connecting region has a polygonal-shaped opening therein with a first pair of adjoining edges having a length longer than the lengths of the remaining adjoining edges. Each memory element may be independently addressed through overlying row and column conductors to either read or write data into the element, and may contain a logic "zero" or "one" determined by the state of the magnetic domain found in the element.
