    摘要: A memory matrix comprises a plurality of word lines, a plurality of bit lines, and a stacked diode and voltage-variable resistor structure interconnecting bit lines to word lines. The stacked diode and voltage-variable resistor structure includes a doped region in a semiconductor substrate defining a work line, a doped polycrystalline silicon layer over said word line and forming a p-n junction therewith, and an amorphized region in the doped polycrystalline silicon layer having increased resistance over the non-amorphized portion of the doped polycrystalline silicon layer. A contact is made to the amorphized polycrystalline silicon material which preferably includes a titanium-tungsten barrier layer and an aluminum layer over the barrier layer. To improve the breakdown voltage of the diode structure, a region of opposite conductivity type is formed in the word line under the doped polycrystalline silicon layer either by out-diffusion of dopants from the polycrystalline silicon layer or by the implantation of dopant ions through the polycrystalline silicon layer into the word line.
