← ScienceWhich consequence results when oxides grow too thin between non-volatile magnetoresistive RAM layers?
A)Increased quantum tunneling probability✓
B)Decreased thermal conductivity overall
C)Enhanced magnetic domain alignment
D)Elevated parasitic capacitance effects
💡 Explanation
Increased quantum tunneling causes erroneous switching because electrons traverse the thin oxide barrier, bypassing the intended resistance change. Therefore, unwanted current leaks rather than reliable state retention occur, because the designed barrier prevents such tunneling.
