제목 Anisotropic etching of nanometer-scale patterned MTJ stacks under various etch gases
초록 Spin transfer torque magnetic random access memory (STT-MRAM) has been known as alternative memory devices for next generation. The characteristics such as high processing speed, low power consumption, high density and non-volatility can make it useful and powerful. Magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) stack is a crucial component in STT-MRAM which usually contains the multilayers including at least two magnetic layers and a tunneling barrier layer.
Although the STT-MRAM device has a lot of these potential, the issue of scaling down using etching process has been remained difficult. In this study, MTJ multilayer patterned with nanometer-scale E-beam resists was etched by using inductively coupled plasma reactive ion etching. The etch characteristics will be investigated at the various etch gas and process conditions.
