Resistive memory device and fabrication method thereof

1. A resistive memory device, comprising:

a lower electrode connected to a switching device and including a first node and a second node formed on a top thereof to be spaced at a fixed interval;

a phase-change material pattern formed on the first node and the second node;

an upper electrode formed on the phase-change material pattern;

a conductive material layer formed on a top and outer sidewall of the upper electrode;

a first contact plug formed on one edge of the top of the upper electrode to be connected to the upper electrode and the conductive material layer; and

a second contact plug formed on the other edge of the top of the upper electrode to be connected to the upper electrode and the conductive material layer.

2. The resistive memory device of claim 1 , further comprising:

a first bit line connected to the first contact plug; and

a second bit line connected to the second contact plug.

3. The resistive memory device of claim 2 , wherein the first contact plug is shared by a pair of adjacent memory cells extending in a direction of the first bit line.

4. The resistive memory device of claim 2 , wherein the second contact plug is shared by a pair of adjacent memory cells extending in a direction of the second bit line.

5. The resistive memory device of claim 1 , wherein the conductive material is in contact with sidewalls of the phase-change material pattern.
