Abstract
A crossbar switch comprising: a first interconnect, a second interconnect, and a resistance change element. The resistance change element includes: a first electrode connected to the first interconnect and a second electrode connected to the second interconnect which are embedded in a first insulating film on a substrate having a transistor; a second insulating film covering the first insulating film and the first and second electrodes; first and second opening portions exposing parts of an upper surface including end portions of the first and second electrodes from the second insulating film with translational symmetry; first and second resistance change films covering the first and second opening portions and connecting to the first and second electrodes at the opening portions; third and fourth electrodes connecting to the first and second resistance change films; a fifth electrode connecting to the third and fourth electrodes and to a diffusion layer of the transistor.
