A manufacturing method of a memory device includes the following steps. Memory units are formed on a substrate. Each of the memory units includes a first electrode, a second electrode, and a memory material layer. The second electrode is disposed above the first electrode in a vertical direction. The memory material layer is disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode in the vertical direction. A conformal spacer layer is formed on the memory units. A non-conformal spacer layer is formed on the conformal spacer layer. A first opening is formed penetrating through a sidewall portion of the non-conformal spacer layer and a sidewall portion of the conformal spacer layer in the vertical direction.
