A phase-changeable memory device includes a phase-changeable material
pattern and first and second electrodes electrically connected to the
phase-changeable material pattern. The first and second electrodes are
configured to provide an electrical signal to the phase-changeable
material pattern. The phase-changeable material pattern includes a first
phase-changeable material layer and a second phase-changeable material
layer. The first and second phase-changeable material patterns have
different chemical, physical, and/or electrical characteristics. For
example, the second phase-changeable material layer may have a greater
resistivity than the first phase-changeable material layer. For instance,
the first phase-changeable material layer may include nitrogen at a first
concentration, and the second phase-changeable material layer may include
nitrogen at a second concentration that is greater than the first
concentration. Related devices and fabrication methods are also
discussed.
