Abstract: Subject matter disclosed herein may relate to construction of a correlated electron material (CEM) device. In particular embodiments, after formation of a film comprising layers of a transition metal oxide (TMO) material and a dopant, at least a portion of the film may be exposed to an elevated temperature. Exposure of the at least a portion of the film to the elevated temperature may continue until the atomic concentration of the dopant within the film is reduced, which may enable operation of the film as a correlated electron material CEM exhibiting switching of impedance states.
