DUAL TRENCH ISOLATION FOR A PHASE-CHANGE MEMORY CELL AND METHOD OF MAKING SAME

摘要

The invention relates to a phase-change memory device. The device includes a double-trench isolation structure around the diode stack that communicates to the lower electrode. The present invention also relates to a method of making a phase-change memory device. The method includes forming two orthogonal and intersecting isolation trenches around a memory cell structure diode stack.
