Manufacturing a MRAM device may include removing etch residues from a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) pattern in the presence of an atmosphere. The removing may include applying a cleaning solution to one or more surfaces of the MTJ pattern. Manufacturing the MRAM device may include removing an oxide layer based on sputter etching of the MTJ pattern. The etch residues may be removed such that the oxide layer is formed. Removing the etch residues may include applying a cleaning solution to the MTJ pattern. The etch residues may be removed in the presence of an atmosphere. The MTJ pattern may be formed based on patterning an MTJ layer in a vacuum state such that the etch residues are formed on a surface of the MTJ pattern.

摘要:
A semiconductor memory device includes a substrate having active regions extending in a first direction and separated therealong by a device isolation layer, and conductive word lines extending on the substrate in a second direction intersecting the first direction. Ones of the word lines extending between the active regions define isolation gate lines, which are insulated from the active regions by the device isolation layer. Edges of the active regions adjacent the isolation gate lines respectively include first and second corners that are spaced apart from an adjacent one of the isolation gate lines by substantially equal distances. Related fabrication methods are also discussed.
