Abstract
Disclosed are data storage devices and methods of manufacturing the same. The methods may include providing a substrate including a cell region and a peripheral circuit region, forming a data storage layer on the cell region and the peripheral circuit region of the substrate, selectively forming a mask layer on a portion of the data storage layer that is formed on the peripheral circuit region, forming a top electrode layer on the data storage layer and the mask layer, patterning the top electrode layer to form a plurality of top electrodes on the cell region, and patterning the data storage layer using the plurality of top electrodes as an etch mask to form a plurality of data storage parts on the cell region. While patterning the top electrode layer, the mask layer on the peripheral circuit region may serve as an etch stop layer.
