    Abstract: A method for fabricating a semiconductor memory device is disclosed. A substrate having a main surface is provided. A memory gate is formed on the main surface of the substrate. The memory has a first sidewall and a second sidewall opposite to the first sidewall. A control gate is formed in proximity to the memory gate. The control gate has a third sidewall directly facing the second sidewall, and a fourth sidewall opposite to the third sidewall. A gap is formed between the second sidewall of the memory gate and the third sidewall of the control gate. A first single spacer structure is formed on the first sidewall of the memory gate and a second single spacer structure on the fourth sidewall of the control gate. A gap-filling layer is formed to fill up the gap.

    Abstract: A RRAM device includes a bottom electrode, a resistive material layer, a high work function layer, a top electrode, a hard mask and high work function sidewall parts. The bottom electrode, the resistive material layer, the high work function layer, the top electrode and the hard mask are sequentially stacked on a substrate. The high work function sidewall parts cover sidewalls of the top electrode and sidewalls of the hard mask, thereby constituting a RRAM cell. A method of forming said RRAM device is also provided.
