Abstract
A sacrificial pattern is formed to partially cover the pipe-shaped electrode. A sacrificial spacer is formed on a lateral surface of the sacrificial pattern. The sacrificial spacer extends across the pipe-shaped electrode. The sacrificial spacer has a first side and a second side opposite the first side. The sacrificial pattern is removed to expose the pipe-shaped electrode proximal to the first and second sides of the sacrificial spacer. The pipe-shaped electrode exposed on both sides of the sacrificial spacer may be primarily trimmed. The pipe-shaped electrode is retained under the sacrificial spacer to form a first portion, and a second portion facing the first portion. The second portion of the pipe-shaped electrode is secondarily trimmed. The sacrificial spacer is removed to expose the first portion of the pipe-shaped electrode. A data storage plug is formed on the first portion of the pipe-shaped electrode.
