A nonvolatile memory device includes a semiconductor substrate, a first electrode on the semiconductor substrate, a resistive layer on the first electrode, a second electrode on the resistive layer and at least one tunneling layer interposed between the resistive layer and the first electrode and/or the second electrode. The resistive layer and the tunneling layer may support transition between first and second resistance states responsive to first and second voltages applied across the first and second electrodes. The first and second voltages may have opposite polarities.
