Low power magnetoelectronic device structures and methods for making the
same are provided. One magnetoelectronic device structure (100) comprises
a programming line (104), a magnetoelectronic device (102) magnetically
coupled to the programming line, and an enhanced permeability dielectric
material (106) disposed adjacent the magnetoelectronic device. The
enhanced permeability dielectric material has a permeability no less than
approximately 1.5. A method for making a magnetoelectronic device
structure is also provided. The method comprises fabricating a
magnetoelectronic device (102) and depositing a conducting line (104). A
layer of enhanced permeability dielectric material (106) having a
permeability no less than approximately 1.5 is formed, wherein after the
step of fabricating a magnetoelectronic device and the step of depositing
a conducting line, the layer of enhanced permeability dielectric material
is situated adjacent the magnetoelectronic device.
