Abstract

A resistive-switching random access memory device includes a memory cell disposed between a bit line and a word line, the memory cell having a resistive-switching element (40) and a Schottky diode (30). The Schottky diode (30) and the resistive-switching element (40) are connected in series. The Schottky diode (30) includes a metal layer and a semiconductor layer contacting each other. An interface between the metal layer and the semiconductor layer has a non-planar shape.
