Abstract

Manufacturing a resistance RAM device includes the steps of forming an insulation layer on a semiconductor substrate having a bottom electrode contact; etching the insulation layer to define a hole exposing the bottom electrode contact; depositing sequentially a bottom electrode material layer and a TMO material layer selectively within the hole; depositing a top electrode material layer within the hole and on the insulation layer in such a way as to completely fill the hole in which the bottom electrode material layer and the TMO material layer are formed; removing partial thicknesses of the top electrode material layer and the insulation layer to form a stack pattern comprising a bottom electrode, a TMO, and a top electrode.
