Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a substrate and a memory structure disposed above the substrate. An embodied memory structure includes a bottom electrode disposed above the substrate, a barrier layer disposed at the bottom electrode, a resistance switching layer disposed on the bottom electrode and above the barrier layer, and a top electrode disposed on the resistance switching layer and covering the resistance switching layer. A bottom surface of the resistance switching layer is spaced apart from an uppermost surface of the barrier layer by a distance.
