Abstract:
The cross-sectional area of a contact with a phase-change memory element within the cell is controlled by a first dimension of a bottom electrode and a second dimension controlled by an etch process. The contact area is a product of the first dimension and the second dimension. The method allows the formation of very small phase-change memory cells.
