Abstract

A method of fabricating a resistive random access memory (RRAM) device is disclosed. A plurality of word lines extending along a first direction are formed on a substrate with a recess between the word lines. A spacer-type resistance layer and a top electrode layer are formed on a sidewall of each of the word lines. A photoresist stripe pattern extending along a second direction is then formed on the substrate. The first direction is perpendicular to the second direction. An etching process is performed to remove the top electrode layer and the spacer-type resistance layer not covered by the photoresist stripe pattern to form a plurality of top electrodes. A diode is formed on each of the top electrodes.
