Abstract
A method for a photo and/or electron beam lithographic fabricating processes for producing a pillar array test device. The method includes receiving a wafer having a plurality of bit cells arranged in a grid and etching a plurality of bottom electrode traces to connect a plurality of bottom electrode pads in a centrally located bit cell to each of the bit cells in the grid. The method further includes fabricating an array of magnetic tunnel junction pillars onto each respective pad in the centrally located bit cell. The wafer is then planarized. The method further includes etching a plurality of top electrode traces to connect the plurality of magnetic tunnel junction pillars to each of the bit cells in the grid, and outputting the wafer for subsequent testing.
