    Abstract: Disclosed in the present application are a memory and a method for manufacturing thereof. The manufacturing method includes: bottom electrodes of a memory array region and a first portion of top contact body of a logic region are formed on an upper surface of a bottom circuit layer simultaneously; a patterned dielectric layer is formed on an upper surface of a memory cell layer in the memory array region and the logic region; hard masks and a second portion of top contact body are formed in a via of the patterned dielectric layer simultaneously, where the hard masks corresponds to the bottom electrodes, and the second portion of top contact body is connected to the first portion of top contact body in a contact manner; and the memory cell layer is etched to form memory cells.

    Abstract: A memory device includes a first conductive line, a second conductive line, and a memory cell disposed between the first and second conductive lines. The memory cell includes a lower electrode layer, a switching pattern, and an upper electrode layer. The switching pattern includes a main region including a pair of first side walls and a pair of second walls, and a corner region at four corners of the main region. The switching pattern includes a chalcogenide layer including a Group VI chalcogen element, an element of Group IV and an element of Group V, and the concentration of the Group IV element in the corner region is greater than that of the Group IV element in the main region, or the concentration of the Group V element in the corner region is greater than that of the Group V element in the main region.

    Abstract: Memory devices and methods of forming the same are provided. A memory device includes a substrate, a first conductive layer, a phase change layer, a selector layer and a second conductive layer. The first conductive layer is disposed over the substrate. The phase change layer is disposed over the first conductive layer. The selector layer is disposed between the phase change layer and the first conductive layer. The second conductive layer is disposed over the phase change layer. In some embodiments, at least one of the phase change layer and the selector layer has a narrow-middle profile.
