    Abstract: A magnetic memory device includes a first magnetic pattern and a second magnetic pattern that are sequentially stacked on a substrate, a tunnel barrier pattern between the first magnetic pattern and the second magnetic pattern, a lower electrode between the substrate and the first magnetic pattern, a blocking pattern between the lower electrode and the first magnetic pattern, a metal oxide pattern between the blocking pattern and the first magnetic pattern, and a buffer pattern between the metal oxide pattern and the first magnetic pattern. The lower electrode, the blocking pattern, the metal oxide pattern, and the buffer pattern include first, second, third, and fourth non-magnetic metals, respectively. The metal oxide pattern has an amorphous phase.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a substrate including a cell region and a peripheral region, a cell gate electrode buried in a groove crossing a cell active portion of the cell region, a cell line pattern crossing over the cell gate electrode, the cell line pattern being connected to a first source/drain region in the cell active portion at a side of the cell gate electrode, a peripheral gate pattern crossing over a peripheral active portion of the peripheral region, a planarized interlayer insulating layer on the substrate around the peripheral gate pattern, and a capping insulating layer on the planarized interlayer insulating layer and a top surface of the peripheral gate pattern, the capping insulating layer including an insulating material having an etch selectivity with respect to the planarized interlayer insulating layer.

    Abstract: In a method of manufacturing a magnetoresistive random access memory, a memory structure may be formed on a substrate. The memory structure may include a lower electrode, a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) structure, and an upper electrode sequentially stacked. A protection layer including silicon nitride may be formed to cover a surface of the memory structure. The protection layer may be formed by a chemical vapor deposition process using plasma and introducing deposition gases including a silicon source gas, a nitrogen source gas containing no hydrogen and a dissociation gas. Damages of the MTJ structure may be decreased during forming the protection layer. Thus, the MRAM may have improved characteristics.
