1. A method of forming a memory cell, comprising:

  • filling a trench in a first dielectric with a first conductor;

    recessing the first conductor in the first dielectric;

    filling the recess with a first diffusion barrier;

    forming a pillar over the first diffusion barrier; and

    forming a second conductor over the pillar,the pillar having a first electrical conductivity before a program voltage is applied to the cell and a second electrical conductivity after a program voltage is applied to the cell.
