Abstract
A method for fabricating semiconductor device includes the step of forming a magnetic tunneling junction (MTJ) on a substrate, in which the MTJ includes a pinned layer on the substrate, a barrier layer on the pinned layer, and a free layer on the barrier layer and the free layer includes a magnesium oxide (MgO) compound. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the free layer includes a first cap layer on the barrier layer, a spacer on the first cap layer, and a second cap layer on the spacer.
