A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate and an interconnection structure. The interconnection structure is disposed over the semiconductor substrate. The interconnection structure includes first conductive lines, second conductive lines, and ovonic threshold switches. The first conductive lines extend parallel to each other in a first direction. The second conductive lines are stacked over the first conductive lines and extend parallel to each other in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The ovonic threshold switches are disposed between the first conductive lines and the second conductive lines. The ovonic threshold switches include a ternary GeCTe material. The ternary GeCTe material consists substantially of carbon, germanium, and tellurium. In the ternary GeCTe material, a content of carbon is in a range from 10 to 30 atomic percent and a content of germanium is in a range from 10 to 65 atomic percent.
