In one aspect, to fabricate MTJs in an MRAM array with reduced MTJ row pitch, a first patterning process is performed to provide separation areas in an MTJ layer between what will become rows of fabricated MTJs, which facilitates MTJs in a given row sharing a common bottom electrode.

Additional separation areas are etched between free layers of adjacent MTJs in a given row to fabricate the individual MTJs.
