A magnetic device and a method of manufacturing the same. In the method, a lower magnetic layer, an insulation layer, and an upper magnetic layer are sequentially formed on a substrate. An upper magnetic layer pattern is formed by patterning the upper magnetic layer until an upper surface of the insulation layer is exposed. An isolation layer pattern is formed from portions of the insulation layer and the lower magnetic layer by performing an oxidation process on the exposed upper surface of the insulation layer, and an insulation layer pattern and a lower magnetic layer pattern are formed from portions of the insulation layer and the lower magnetic layer, where the isolation layer pattern is not formed.

A method of forming a phase change material layer pattern includes forming a phase change material layer partially filling an opening through an insulating interlayer. A plasma treatment process is performed on the phase change material layer to remove an oxide layer on a surface of the phase change material layer. A heat treatment process is performed on the phase change material layer to remove a void or a seam in the phase change material layer, sufficiently filling the opening.
