Abstract
Resistance variable memory cells and methods are described herein. One or more methods of forming a resistance variable memory cell include forming a silicide material on a terminal of a select device associated with the resistance variable memory cell, forming a modified region of the silicide material by modifying a resistivity of a region of the silicide material, forming a conductive element on at least a portion of the modified region, and forming a resistance variable material on the conductive element.
