Abstract
In a method of forming a magnetic pattern, a lower electrode layer is formed on a substrate. An insulating interlayer is formed on the lower electrode layer. The insulating interlayer is partially removed to form an opening. A first pinned layer pattern filling the opening is formed. A second pinned layer, a tunnel barrier layer, a free layer and an upper electrode layer are formed on the insulating interlayer and the first pinned layer pattern. The upper electrode layer, the free layer, the tunnel barrier layer and the second pinned layer are patterned to form a second pinned layer pattern, a tunnel barrier pattern, a free layer pattern and an upper electrode. The second pinned layer pattern covers an upper surface of the first pinned layer pattern.
