Abstract: Some embodiments include a memory cell that has an electrode, a switching material over the electrode, a buffer region over the switching material, and an ion reservoir material over the buffer region. The buffer region includes one or more elements from Group 14 of the periodic table in combination with one or more chalcogen elements. Some embodiments include methods of forming memory cells.

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.
