Abstract

Integrated circuit nonvolatile memory uses programmable resistive elements. In some examples, conductive structures such as electrodes are prepared, and the programmable resistive elements are laid upon the prepared electrodes. This prevents contamination of the programmable resistive elements from previous fabrication steps.
