Magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) with a magnesium oxide tunnel barrier

A method for fabricating a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) is disclosed. The process involves annealing a stack that includes a tunnel barrier layer and cooling the stack under vacuum immediately after annealing. At least one overlayer is deposited on the tunnel barrier layer to form the MTJ.
