A phase change memory device reduces the current necessary to cause a phase change of a phase change layer. The phase change memory device includes a first oxide layer formed on a semiconductor substrate; a lower electrode formed inside the first oxide layer; a second oxide layer formed on the first oxide layer including the lower electrode, the second oxide having a hole for exposing a part of the lower electrode; a phase change layer formed on a surface of the hole with a uniform thickness so as to make contact with the lower electrode; and an upper electrode formed in the hole and on a part of the second oxide layer, the part being adjacent to the hole.
