Abstract:
Semiconductor devices, and methods for fabricating a semiconductor device, include forming a contact hole penetrating an interlayer insulating layer and exposing a conductor defining a bottom surface of the contact hole, forming a sacrificial layer filling the contact hole, forming a first trench overlapping a part of the contact hole by removing at least a part of the sacrificial layer, forming a spacer filling the first trench, forming a second trench by removing a remainder of the sacrificial layer, and forming a metal electrode filling the contact hole and the second trench using electroless plating.
Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a conductive line, a diode on the conductive line, one or more insulating patterns adjacent to diode, and a data storage region coupled to the diode. An upper surface of the diode is between the one or more insulating patterns and the data storage region. The data storage region may include a phase-change region, and the diode may taper in width between two insulating patterns in one arrangement.
