Abstract:
A phase change memory cell includes an interlayer insulating layer formed on a semiconductor substrate, and a first electrode and a second electrode disposed in the interlayer insulating layer. A phase change material layer is disposed between the first and second electrodes. The phase change material layer may be an undoped GeBiTe layer, a doped GeBiTe layer containing an impurity or a doped GeTe layer containing an impurity. The undoped GeBiTe layer has a composition ratio within a range surrounded by four points (A1(Ge21.43, Bi16.67, Te61.9), A2(Ge44.51, Bi0.35, Te55.14), A3(Ge59.33, Bi0.5, Te40.17) and A4(Ge38.71, Bi16.13, Te45.16)) represented by coordinates on a triangular composition diagram having vertices of germanium (Ge), bismuth (Bi) and tellurium (Te). The doped GeBiTe layer contains an impurity and has a composition ratio within a range surrounded by four points (D1(Ge10, Bi20, Te70), D2(Ge30, Bi0, Te70), D3(Ge70, Bi0, Te30) and D4(Ge50, Bi20, Te30)) represented by coordinates on the triangular composition diagram.
