Abstract

A phase-change memory and fabrication method thereof. The phase-change memory comprises a transistor, and a phase-change material layer. In particular, the phase-change material layer is directly in contact with one electrical terminal of the transistor. Particularly, the transistor can be a field effect transistor or a bipolar junction transistor.
