OBLIQUE DEPOSITION TO INDUCE MAGNETIC ANISOTROPY FOR MRAM CELLS
摘要
<p>A method of fabricating a magnetoresistive tunneling junction cell comprising the steps of providing a substrate with a surface, depositing a first magnetic region (17) having a resultant magnetic moment vector onto the substrate, depositing an electrically insulating material (16) onto the first magnetic region, and depositing a second magnetic region (15) onto the electrically insulating material, wherein at least a portion of one of the first and second magnetic regions is formed by depositing said region at a nonzero deposition angle relative to a direction perpendicular to the surface of the substrate to create an induced anisotropy.</p>
