Abstract

An electronic device is provided to include a semiconductor memory that includes: a substrate including a first region and a second region different from the first region; an interlayer dielectric layer formed over the substrate; a first conductive pattern located over the first region and formed in the interlayer dielectric layer, the first conductive pattern including a planarized top surface with a top surface of the interlayer dielectric layer; a second conductive pattern located over the second region and formed in the interlayer dielectric layer, the second conductive pattern including at least a portion recessed below a top surface of the interlayer dielectric layer; a variable resistance pattern formed over the interlayer dielectric layer the variable resistance pattern having a bottom surface coupled to the first conductive pattern and exhibiting different resistance values; and a capping layer pattern formed over the variable resistance pattern.
