Abstract: A memory device includes an insulation layer, an interconnection structure disposed in the insulation layer, a dielectric layer disposed on the insulation layer and the interconnection structure, a connection hole disposed on the interconnection structure and penetrates the dielectric layer, an alignment mark trench penetrating the dielectric layer on a peripheral region, a first patterned conductive layer, and a patterned memory material layer. The first patterned conductive layer includes a connection structure at least partly disposed in the connection hole and a first pattern disposed in the alignment mark trench. The patterned memory material layer includes a first memory material pattern disposed on the connection structure and a second memory material pattern disposed in the alignment mark trench. Manufacturing yield and alignment condition of forming the memory device may be improved by disposing a part of the first patterned conductive layer in the alignment mark trench.

Abstract: A magneto-resistive random access memory (MRAM) cell includes a substrate having a dielectric layer disposed thereon, a conductive via disposed in the dielectric layer, and a cylindrical stack disposed on the conductive via. The cylindrical stack includes a bottom electrode, a magnetic tunneling junction (MTJ) layer on the bottom electrode, and a top electrode on the MTJ layer. A spacer layer is disposed on a sidewall of the cylindrical stack. The top electrode protrudes from a top surface of the spacer layer.
