Abstract
A multilayer crossbar memory array includes a number of layers. Each layer includes a top set of parallel lines, a bottom set of parallel lines intersecting the top set of parallel lines, and memory elements disposed at intersections between the top set of parallel lines and the bottom set of parallel lines. A top set of parallel lines from one of the layers is a bottom set of parallel lines for an adjacent one of the layers.
