Nonvolatile resistive memory elements and memory devices including the same
摘要
<p>Nonvolatile memory elements and memory devices including the nonvolatile memory elements. A nonvolatile memory element may include a memory layer between two electrodes, and the memory layer may have a multi-layer structure. The memory layer may include a base layer and an ionic species exchange layer and may have a resistance change characteristic due to movement of ionic species between the base layer and the ionic species exchange layer. The ionic species exchange layer may have a multi-layer structure including at least two layers. The nonvolatile memory element may have a multi-bit memory characteristic due to the ionic species exchange layer having the multi-layer structure. The base layer may be an oxygen supplying layer, and the ionic species exchange layer may be an oxygen exchange layer.</p>
