Patent ID: 8455346

Claim:
A method for manufacturing a nonvolatile memory device, the nonvolatile memory device including a memory cell connected to a first interconnect and a second interconnect, the method comprising: forming a first electrode film on the first interconnect; forming a layer including a plurality of carbon nanotubes dispersed inside an insulator on the first electrode film, at least one carbon nanotube of the plurality of carbon nanotubes being exposed from a surface of the insulator; forming a second electrode film on the layer; and forming the second interconnect on the second electrode film; the forming of the layer including heating a fluid including the plurality of carbon nanotubes after the fluid is placed on the first electrode film; and a solvent of the fluid being silanol (Si(OH) 4 )-containing solvent or methylsilsesquioxane (MSQ)-containing solvent.
