摘要:
The present invention relates to a phase changeable structure having decreased amounts of defects and a method of forming the phase changeable structure. A stacked composite is first formed by (i) forming a phase changeable layer including a chalcogenide is formed on a lower electrode, (ii) forming an etch stop layer having a first etch rate with respect to a first etching material including chlorine on the phase changeable layer, and (iii) forming a conductive layer having a second etch rate with respect to the first etching material on the etch stop layer. The conductive layer of the stacked composite is then etched using the first etching material to form an upper electrode. The etch stop layer and the phase changeable layer are then etched using a second etching material that is substantially flee of chlorine to form an etch stop pattern and a phase changeable pattern, respectively.
摘要:
A phase change memory device and method of manufacturing the same is provided. A first electrode having a first surface is provided on a substrate. A second electrode having a second surface at a different level from the first surface is on the substrate. The second electrode may be spaced apart from the first electrode. A third electrode may be formed corresponding to the first electrode. A fourth electrode may be formed corresponding to the second electrode. A first phase change pattern may be interposed between the first surface and the third electrode. A second phase change pattern may be interposed between the second surface and the fourth electrode. Upper surfaces of the first and second phase change patterns may be on the same plane
摘要:
Provided is a phase-change memory device including a phase-change material pattern of which strips are shared by neighboring cells. The phase-change memory device includes a plurality of bottom electrodes arranged in a matrix array. The phase-change material pattern is formed on the bottom electrodes, and the strips of the phase-change material pattern are electrically connected to the bottom electrodes. Each strip of the phase-change material pattern is connected to at least two diagonally neighboring bottom electrodes of the bottom electrodes.
