Abstract

A magnetic tunnel junction pattern includes a first magnetic layer, a tunnel barrier layer, a second magnetic layer, and a non-magnetic capping layer that are sequentially stacked on a substrate. A top electrode is disposed on the magnetic tunnel junction pattern. A bit line is disposed on the top electrode. The top electrode comprises a metal nitride pattern in contact with the non-magnetic capping layer and a metal pattern disposed on the metal nitride pattern.
