Abstract

A method for fabricating semiconductor device includes the steps of: forming an inter-metal dielectric (IMD) layer on a substrate; forming a metal interconnection in the IMD layer; forming a bottom electrode layer on the IMD layer, wherein the bottom electrode layer comprises a gradient concentration; forming a free layer on the bottom electrode layer; forming a top electrode layer on the free layer; and patterning the top electrode layer, the free layer, and the bottom electrode layer to form a magnetic tunneling junction (MTJ).
