Method for manufacturing a microelectronic device comprising a plurality of resistive memory points configured to form a physical unclonable function and said device

A method for manufacturing a microelectronic device including resistive memory points, a first portion of the memory points forming a physical unclonable function, the memory points of the first portion forming a PUF zone, a second portion of the memory points providing a memory function, the memory points of the second forming a memory zone, the method including providing a support including a first electrode layer and an active oxide resistive memory layer; etching the active oxide resistive memory layer in the PUF zone; etching the active oxide resistive memory layer in the memory zone, the etching in the memory zone producing a dispersion of roughness of the oxide layer less than the dispersion of roughness produced by the etching in the PUF zone; depositing a second electrode layer; etching the second electrode layer, the active oxide layer and the first electrode layer to define the memory points.
