Abstract:
Provided are a switching device and a memory device including the switching device. The switching device includes first and second electrodes, and a switching material layer provided between the first and second electrodes and including a chalcogenide. The switching material layer includes a core portion and a shell portion covering a side surface of the core portion. The switching layer includes a material having an electrical resistance greater than an electrical resistance of the core portion, for example in at least one of the core portion or the shell portion.
Abstract:
