A RRAM and a method for fabricating the same, wherein the RRAM comprises: a bottom electrode; an oxide layer containing a bottom electrode metal, disposed on the bottom electrode; a resistance-switching layer, disposed on the oxide layer containing a bottom electrode metal, wherein the resistance-switching layer material is a nitrogen-containing tantalum oxide; an inserting layer, disposed on the resistance-switching layer, wherein the inserting layer material comprises a metal or a semiconductor; a top electrode, disposed on the inserting layer. By providing the to resistance-switching layer with a nitrogen-containing tantalum oxide, compared with Ta2O5, the RRAM of the present disclosure has a low activation voltage and a high on-off ratio, and can enhance the control capability over the device resistance by the number of oxygen vacancies.
