Abstract:
PURPOSE: A 3D non-volatile memory device and a method for fabricating the same are provided to define a memory cell by intersecting a flat-type conductive plate with a line-type conductive line, and to secure a cross bar-type 3D array structure. CONSTITUTION: Conductive lines(BL11,BL12,BL13,BL21,BL22,BL23) which are parallelly separated from each other are formed. Conductive plates(WP1,WP2,WP3) which are parallelly separated from each other and intersects the conductive lines are formed. The conductive lines and the conductive plates define cross points in the X, the Y, and the Z direction. A nonvolatile information storage layer pattern(SM) for storing a bit value between the cross points is formed. The nonvolatile information storage layer pattern arranged in the cross points defines a unit memory cell.

PURPOSE: A phase change memory device and a manufacturing method thereof are provided to form a high density phase change memory film and to prevent the deterioration of the phase change memory film. CONSTITUTION: An interlayer insulating film(20) including a contact hole is formed on a substrate. A phase change material layer(30a) and a buffer layer(30b) are alternatively formed on the inter layer insulating film to fill the contact hole of the inter layer insulating film. The contact interface between the buffer layer and the phase change material layer are formed in the laminated structure. The laminated structure is heat-treated to reflow the phase change material layer in the contact hole.

Abstract:
A phase change memory device is provided to form a buffer layer for reinforcing interfacial bonding in an interface between a phase changing film and an insulating layer, thereby suppressing delamination of the phase changing film caused by unstable bonding between the phase changing film and the insulating layer. A bottom electrode(310) is formed in each phase change cell domain of a semiconductor substrate(300) having a plurality of phase change cell domains. An insulating layer(320) is evaporated on the semiconductor substrate in order to cover the bottom electrode. A contact hole exposing the bottom electrode is formed by etching the insulating layer. A contact plug(330) contacting the bottom electrode is formed within the contact hole. A buffer layer(340) is formed on the insulating layer including the contact plug. The buffer layer is formed with one of a tiO2 film, a la2O3 film, an hfO2 film, a ta2O5 film, a zrO2 film and an Y2O3 film. Phase change material(350) and a conductive film(360) for an upper electrode are successively evaporated on the buffer layer. The buffer layer has excellent property for adhesive with the phase change material. The phase change material is formed on the buffer film in a form of a thin film comprising elaborate grains.
