摘要
A damascene structure of phase change memory （PCM） is fabricated successfully with the chemical mechanical polishing （CMP） method, and the CMP of Ge2Sb2Te5 （GST） and Ti films is investigated. The polished surface of wafer is analysed by scanning electron microscopy （SEM） and an energy dispersive spectrometer （EDS）. The measurements show that the damascene device structure of phase change memory is achieved by the CMP process. After the top electrode is deposited, dc sweeping test on PCM reveals that the phase change can be observed. The threshold current of array cells varies between 0.90mA and 1.15mA.
