Abstract:
Provided are a memory device and a method of manufacturing the same. Memory cells of the memory device are formed separately from first electrode lines and second electrode lines, wherein the second electrode lines over the memory cells are formed by a damascene process, thereby avoiding complications associated with CMP being excessively or insufficiently performed on an insulation layer over the memory cells.

Claim (Index 12):
The method of  claim 8 , further comprising:\n after the forming of the second electrode line layer, forming a second memory cell layer including a plurality of second memory cells which are disposed over the second electrode line layer and each include a selection device layer, a middle electrode layer, and a variable resistance layer which are stacked in an up or down direction; forming an upper cell insulation layer that fills gaps between adjacent second memory cells and covers the tops of the plurality of second memory cells; forming an upper top insulation layer over the upper cell insulation layer and forming a plurality of top trenches in the upper top insulation layer, the plurality of top trenches extending in the first direction, being spaced apart from each other in the second direction, and respectively exposing the tops of the plurality of second memory cells; and filling the plurality of top trenches with a conductive material to form a third electrode line layer including the plurality of third electrode lines, wherein the plurality of second memory cells are respectively disposed in portions located where the plurality of second electrode lines intersect the plurality of third electrode lines.
