Abstract
An integrated circuit includes a first electrode and a first resistivity changing material coupled to the first electrode. The first resistivity changing material has a planarized surface. The integrated circuit includes a second resistivity changing material contacting the planarized surface of the first resistivity changing material and a second electrode coupled to the second resistivity changing material. A cross-sectional width of the first resistivity changing material is less than a cross-sectional width of the second resistivity changing material.
