Abstract:
A phase change memory (PCM) device including a PCM structure with a getter metal layer disposed between a phase change element (PCE) and a dielectric layer is provided. The PCM structure includes a dielectric layer, a bottom electrode, a via, a PCE, and a getter metal layer. The dielectric layer is disposed over a substrate. The bottom electrode overlies the dielectric layer. The via extends through the dielectric layer, from a bottom surface of the dielectric layer to a top surface of the dielectric layer. The phase change element overlies the bottom electrode. The getter metal layer is disposed between the dielectric layer and the PCE.

Claim (Index 1):
A phase change memory (PCM) structure comprising:\n a dielectric layer over a substrate; a via extending through the dielectric layer; a bottom electrode overlying the dielectric layer and the via, and further electrically coupled to the via; a phase change element overlying the bottom electrode; a top electrode overlying the phase change element; and a getter metal layer between the dielectric layer and the phase change element, wherein sidewalls of the top electrode and sidewalls of the getter metal layer are aligned, wherein the getter metal layer is between a top surface of the dielectric layer and a bottom surface of the bottom electrode.
