摘要:
A method of fabricating a variable resistance memory device includes a plasma etching process to remove contaminants from variable resistance material that forms variable resistance elements of the device. Bottom electrodes are formed on a semiconductor substrate. Next, an interlayer dielectric layer having trenches that expose the bottom electrodes is formed on the substrate. Then a layer of variable resistance material is formed. The variable resistance material covers the interlayer dielectric layer and fills the trenches. The variable resistance material is then planarized down to at least the top surface of the interlayer dielectric layer, thereby leaving elements of the variable resistance material in the trenches. The variable resistance material in the trenches is etched to remove contaminants, produced as a result of the planarizing process, from atop the variable resistance material in the trenches. A top electrode is then formed on the variable resistance material.
