    摘要: A variable resistance memory device includes a substrate and a plurality of spaced apart lower electrodes on the substrate. The device further includes a variable resistance material pattern comprising two vertically opposed wall members connected by a bottom member disposed on and electrically connected to at least one of the plurality of lower electrodes and an upper electrode on the variable resistance material pattern. An area of contact of the variable resistance material pattern with the at least one lower electrode may be rectangular, circular, ring-shaped, or arc-shaped. Fabrication methods are also described.

    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.
