ABSTRACT:
The present invention includes a memory cell device and method that includes a memory cell, a first electrode, a second electrode, phase-change material and an isolation material. The phase-change material is coupled adjacent the first electrode. The second electrode is coupled adjacent the phase-change material. The isolation material adjacent the phase-change material thermally isolates the phase-change material.
