Abstract:
Provided is a method of forming a magnetic memory device. A first magnetic layer, a tunnel barrier, and a second magnetic layer are deposited on a substrate. The second magnetic layer, the tunnel barrier, and the first magnetic layer are etched to form magnetic tunnel junction structures. An ion beam etching process is performed using an oxygen-containing source gas to remove etching by-products on sidewalls of the magnetic tunnel junction structure and to oxidize the sidewalls of the magnetic tunnel junction structures.
