Abstract
A method of fabricating a magnetoresistive bit from a magnetoresistive stack includes (a) etching through at least a portion of a thickness of the surface region to create a first set of exposed areas in the form of multiple strips extending in a first direction, and (b) etching through at least a portion of a thickness of the surface region to create a second set of exposed areas in the form of multiple strips extending in a second direction. The first set of exposed areas and the second set of exposed areas may have multiple areas that overlap. The method may also include, (c) after the etching in (a) and (b), etching through at least a portion of the thickness of the magnetoresistive stack through the first set and second set of exposed areas.
