    Abstract: Some embodiments include a method of forming a memory cell. A first portion of a switching region is formed over a first electrode. A second portion of the switching region is formed over the first portion using atomic layer deposition. The second portion is a different composition than the first portion. An ion source region is formed over the switching region. A second electrode is formed over the ion source region. Some embodiments include a memory cell having a switching region between a pair of electrodes. The switching region is configured to be reversibly transitioned between a low resistive state and a high resistive state. The switching region includes two or more discrete portions, with one of the portions not having a non-oxygen component in common with any composition directly against it in the high resistive state.

    Abstract: A memory cell includes a select device and a capacitor electrically coupled in series with the select device. The capacitor includes two conductive capacitor electrodes having ferroelectric material there-between. The capacitor has an intrinsic current leakage path from one of the capacitor electrodes to the other through the ferroelectric material. There is a parallel current leakage path from the one capacitor electrode to the other. The parallel current leakage path is circuit-parallel the intrinsic path and of lower total resistance than the intrinsic path. Other aspects are disclosed.

    Abstract: An electronic device comprises ferroelectric random access memory cells. One or more of the ferroelectric random access memory cells comprises a crystallized ferroelectric material and an electrode adjacent to the crystallized ferroelectric material. The crystallized ferroelectric material exhibits a dominant crystallographic orientation. The electrode comprises a crystalline material exhibiting an additional dominant crystallographic orientation inducing the dominant crystallographic orientation of the crystallized ferroelectric material. A memory device is also disclosed comprising an array of ferroelectric memory cells. The ferroelectric memory cell comprises a crystallized ferroelectric material having a first side and a second side opposite the first side, and an electrode adjacent the first side of the ferroelectric material. The crystallized ferroelectric material comprises a crystallized hafnium-based material exhibiting a dominant (200) crystallographic orientation.
