Abstract

A resistive random access memory (RRAM) device and a manufacturing method are provided. The RRAM device includes bottom electrodes, a resistance switching layer, insulating patterns, a channel layer and top electrodes. The resistance switching layer blanketly covers the bottom electrodes. The insulating patterns are disposed on the resistance layer and located in corresponding to locations of the bottom electrodes. The channel layer conformally covers the resistance switching layer and the insulating patterns. The channel layer has a plurality of channel regions. The channel regions are located on the resistance switching layer, and cover sidewalls of the insulating patterns. The top electrodes respectively cover at least two of the channel regions, and respectively located in corresponding to one of the insulating patterns, such that the at least two of the channel regions are located between one of the bottom electrodes and one of the top electrodes.
