VARIABLE RESISTANCE MEMORY DEVICE HAVING REDUCED BOTTOM CONTACT AREA AND METHOD OF FORMING THE SAME
Abstract:
A variable resistance memory element and method of forming the same. The memory element includes a substrate supporting a bottom electrode having a small bottom contact area. A variable resistance material is formed over the bottom electrodes such that the variable resistance material has a surface that is in electrical communication with the bottom electrode and a top electrode is formed over the variable resistance material. The small bottom electrode contact area reduces the reset current requirement which in turn reduces the write transistor size for each bit.
