Patent ID: 7344946

Claim:
A method of forming a memory device, the method comprising the acts of: forming a first conductive line over a substrate; forming a second conductive line; forming at least one first memory element, the act of forming the at least one first memory element comprising forming a first layer of amorphous carbon and forming at least one first conductive layer; coupling the first conductive line to the first layer of amorphous carbon at one or more locations to define at least a first memory element; forming at least one second memory element over the at least one first memory element, the act of forming the at least one second memory element comprising forming a second layer of amorphous carbon and forming the at least one first conductive layer between the first and second amorphous carbon layers; coupling the second conductive line to the second layer of amorphous carbon at one or more locations to define at least a second memory element; and forming at least one first metal containing layer between the first and second amorphous carbon layers.
