Abstract:
1. A resistive memory arrangement comprising: a nanowire having a longitudinal axis; and a resistive memory cell comprising: a resistive layer comprising a resistive changing material, wherein at least a section of the resistive layer is arranged covering at least a portion of a surface of the nanowire, and wherein at least a portion of the resistive layer is arranged around the longitudinal axis and at least substantially surrounding the nanowire; and a conductive layer arranged on at least a part of the resistive layer, wherein at least a portion of the conductive layer is arranged at least substantially surrounding the portion of the resistive layer; wherein the nanowire and the conductive layer act as separate electrical contacts to allow a current flow between the nanowire and the conductive layer through the resistive layer.
