Abstract

Fabricating a magnetoresistive random access memory cell and a structure for a magnetoresistive random access memory cell begins by providing a substrate having a transistor formed therein. A contact element is formed electrically coupled to the transistor and a dielectric material is deposited within an area partially bounded by the contact element. A digit line is formed within the dielectric material, the digit line overlying a portion of the contact element. A conductive layer is formed overlying the digit line and in electrical communication with the contact element.
