ABSTRACT:
A vertical elevated pore structure for a phase change memory may include a pore with a lower electrode beneath the pore contacting the phase change material in the pore. The lower electrode may be made up of a higher resistivity lower electrode and a lower resistivity lower electrode underneath the higher resistivity lower electrode. As a result, more uniform heating of the phase change material may be achieved in some embodiments and better contact may be made in some cases.
