Abstract: In order to reduce the reset current of chalcogenide random access memory, a W sub-microtube heater electrode with outer/inner diameter of 260/100nm, which was fabricated with standard 0.18-μm echnology, is proposed for the first time to achieve a reset current of about 0.5mA. The reasons may be that sub-microtube increases the number of electrode edge and thermal efficiency is improved greatly because the thermal density on the edge of sub-microtube electrode is generally the highest.
