Abstract

A nano-elastic memory device and a method of manufacturing the same. The nano-elastic memory device may include a substrate, a plurality of lower electrodes arranged in parallel on the substrate, a support unit formed of an insulating material to a desired or predetermined thickness on the substrate having cavities that expose the lower electrodes, a nano-elastic body extending perpendicular from a surface of the lower electrodes in the cavities, and a plurality of upper electrodes formed on the support unit and perpendicularly crossing the lower electrodes over the nano-elastic bodies.
