Abstract
A method for fabricating a magnetic random access memory circuit (MRAM) and a MRAM circuit resulting therefrom are provided. The method includes depositing a first conductive layer upon and in contact with a plurality of magnetic cell junctions and selectively removing portions of the first conductive layer arranged above the plurality of magnetic cell junctions. In addition, the method includes depositing a second conductive layer above remaining portions of the first conductive layer and the plurality of magnetic cell junctions. The resulting circuit may include a field-inducing line having thickness and/or width variations relative to underlying magnetic cell junctions.
