Zusammenfassung:A magnetoresistive random access memory (MRAM) structure includes a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ), and a top electrode which contacts an end of the MTJ. The top electrode includes a top electrode upper portion and a top electrode lower portion. The width of the top electrode upper portion is larger than the width of the top electrode lower portion. A bottom electrode contacts another end of the MTJ. The top electrode, the MTJ and the bottom electrode form an MRAM.
