Abstract
Magnetic tunnel junction pillars are encapsulated by an oxidized diffusion barrier layer. Oxygen within the encapsulating material is used to oxidize metallic residue outside the pillars, converting the residue to a non-conductive material such as a metal oxide or metal oxynitride. Selective deposition of manganese on the metal layers of the pillars can be followed by oxidation of the manganese to form a manganese oxide diffusion barrier. Alternatively, manganese deposition can be followed by deposition of silicon dioxide and subsequent annealing to form a manganese silicate diffusion barrier.
