Abstract

In some aspects, a method of fabricating a memory cell is provided that includes (1) fabricating a first conductor above a substrate; (2) selectively fabricating a carbon nano-tube (CNT) material above the first conductor; (3) fabricating a diode above the CNT material; and (4) fabricating a second conductor above the diode. Numerous other aspects are provided.
