    Abstract: A method for forming an MTJ structure suitable for use in a MRAM device having a bottom electrode including a layer of platinum, ruthenium, iridium, rhodium, osmium, palladium or their oxides and having reduced surface roughness to improve the hysteresis loop characteristics of the resulting MTJ structure. The bottom electrode layer may also combine the functions of both the seeding layer and bottom electrode of the conventional two-layer structure, thereby simplifying the manufacturing process.

    Abstract: A method of etching a metal oxide layer formed on a metal layer is provided. The method includes mounting a specimen having the metal oxide layer and a photoresist on the metal oxide layer in a reaction chamber, wherein the metal oxide layer is formed on the metal layer and a pattern is formed on the photoresist. Primary etching of the metal oxide layer exposed by the photoresist may be performed using Cl2 gas in an inductively coupled plasma method. Secondary etching of residues remaining on an etched region of the metal oxide layer may be performed using BCl3 gas in the inductively coupled plasma method.
