Patent ID: 10249820

Abstract:
The semiconductor device includes a plurality of first conductive patterns on a substrate, a first selection pattern on each of the plurality of first conductive patterns, a first structure on the first selection pattern, a plurality of second conductive patterns on the first structures, a second selection pattern on each of the plurality of second conductive patterns, a second structure on the second selection pattern, and a plurality of third conductive patterns on the second structures. Each of the plurality of first conductive patterns may extend in a first direction. The first structure may include a first variable resistance pattern and a first heating electrode. The first variable resistance pattern and the first heating electrode may contact each other to have a first contact area therebetween. Each of the plurality of second conductive patterns may extend in a second direction crossing the first direction. The second structure may include a second variable resistance pattern and a second heating electrode. The second variable resistance pattern and the second heating electrode may contact each other to have a second contact area therebetween, and the second contact area may be different from the first contact area.
