Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods related to or that employ chalcogenide memory components and compositions are described. A component of a memory cell, such as a selector device, storage device, or self-selecting memory device, may be made of a chalcogenide material composition. A chalcogenide material may have a composition that includes one or more elements from the boron group, such as boron, aluminum, gallium, indium, or thallium. The chalcogenide material, for instance, may have a composition of selenium, germanium, and at least one of boron, aluminum, gallium, indium, or thallium. The chalcogenide material may in some cases also include arsenic, but may in some cases lack arsenic.

A chalcogenide material may have a composition that includes one or more elements from the boron group, such as boron, aluminum, gallium, indium, or thallium. A selector device, for instance, may have a composition of selenium, arsenic, and at least one of boron, aluminum, gallium, indium, or thallium. The selector device may also be composed of germanium or silicon, or both. The relative amount of boron, aluminum, gallium, indium, or thallium may affect a threshold voltage of a memory component, and the relative amount may be selected accordingly. A memory component may, for instance have a composition that includes selenium, arsenic, and some combination of germanium, silicon, and at least one of boron, aluminum, gallium, indium, or thallium.

Abstract: Apparatuses and methods of manufacture are disclosed for phase change memory cell electrodes having a conductive barrier material. In one example, an apparatus includes a first chalcogenide structure and a second chalcogenide structure stacked together with the first chalcogenide structure. A first electrode portion is coupled to the first chalcogenide structure, and a second electrode portion is coupled to the second chalcogenide structure. An electrically conductive barrier material is disposed between the first and second electrode portions.

Abstract: Microelectronic devices include a region with a tiered stack that includes insulative, conductive, and non-conductive structures arranged in tiers. The insulative structures vertically alternate with both the conductive and the non-conductive structures. Each of the conductive structures is vertically spaced from another of the conductive structures by at least one of the non-conductive structures and at least two of the insulative structures. A composition of the non-conductive structures differs from a composition of the insulative structures. In methods of fabrication, a precursor stack is formed to include the insulative structures vertically alternating with first and second non-conductive structures. In a region of the precursor stack, the first non-conductive structures are removed, forming voids between multi-structure tier groups. Conductive structures are formed in the voids. Electronic systems are also disclosed.
