Abstract:
Methods, systems, and devices for tapered memory cell profiles are described. A tapered profile memory cell may mitigate shorts in adjacent word lines, which may be leveraged for accurately reading a stored value of the memory cell. The memory device may include a self-selecting memory component with a bottom surface and a top surface opposite the bottom surface. In some cases, the self-selecting memory component may taper from the bottom surface to the top surface. In other examples, the self-selecting memory component may taper from the top surface to the bottom surface. The top surface of the self-selecting memory component may be coupled to a top electrode, and the bottom surface of the self-selecting memory component may be coupled to a bottom electrode.

Claim (Index 14):
A memory device, comprising:\n a self-selecting memory component comprising a top surface having a first top length and a bottom surface having a first bottom length less than the first top length in a first direction, the top surface having a second top length and the bottom surface having a second bottom length in a second direction, the second direction different than the first direction, wherein the second top length of the top surface is greater than the second top length of the bottom surface in the second direction; a top electrode coupled with the top surface of the self-selecting memory component; and a bottom electrode coupled with the bottom surface of the self-selecting memory component and in electronic communication with the top electrode via the self-selecting memory component.
