Abstract
The present disclosure relates integrated chip structure. The integrated chip structure includes a lower insulating structure disposed over a lower dielectric structure surrounding one or more lower interconnects. A bottom electrode via surrounded by one or more interior sidewalls of the lower insulating structure. The bottom electrode via includes a barrier surrounding a conductive core. A bottom electrode is arranged on the bottom electrode via, a data storage structure is over the bottom electrode, and a top electrode is over the data storage structure. The barrier includes a sidewall disposed along the one or more interior sidewalls of the lower insulating structure and a horizontally covering segment protruding outward from the sidewall to above a top surface of the lower insulating structure.
