Magnetic random access memory using bipolar junction transistor, and method for fabricating the same

摘要

A magnetic random access memory (MRAM) is disclosed. The MRAM may include a semiconductor substrate serving as a base of a bipolar junction transistor; an emitter and a collector of the bipolar junction transistor provided at an active region of the semiconductor substrate; an MTJ cell positioned at the active region between the emitter and the collector, separately from the emitter and the collector by a predetermined distance; and a word line provided on the MTJ cell. The MRAM may also include a bit line contacting the collector; and a reference voltage line contacting the emitter. As a result, the constitution and fabrication process of the MRAM are simplified to improve productivity and properties of the device.
