Abstract
A resistive random access memory (RRAM) including a substrate, a dielectric layer, memory cells and an interconnect structure is provided. The dielectric layer is disposed on the substrate. The memory cells are vertically and adjacently disposed in the dielectric layer, and each of the memory cells includes a first electrode, a second electrode and a variable resistance structure. The second electrode is disposed on the first electrode. The variable resistance structure is disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode. In two vertically adjacent memory cells, the first electrode of the upper memory cell and the second electrode of the lower memory cell are disposed between the adjacent variable resistance structures and isolated from each other. The interconnect structure is disposed in the dielectric layer and connects the first electrodes of the memory cells.
