Abstract: Semiconductor structures including a zirconium oxide material and methods of forming the same are described herein. As an example, a semiconductor structure can include a zirconium oxide material, a perovskite structure material, and a noble metal material formed between the zirconium oxide material and the perovskite structure material.

Abstract: Electronic apparatus, systems, and methods include a resistive random access memory cell having an oxygen gradient in a variable resistive region of the resistive random access memory cell and methods of forming the resistive random access memory cell. Oxygen can be incorporated into the resistive random access memory cell by ion implantation. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods are disclosed.

Abstract: Some embodiments include methods of forming memory cells. Metal oxide may be deposited over a first electrode, with the deposited metal oxide having a relatively low degree of crystallinity. The degree of crystallinity within the metal oxide may be increased after the deposition of the metal oxide. A dielectric material may be formed over the metal oxide, and a second electrode may be formed over the dielectric material. The degree of crystallinity may be increased with a thermal treatment. The thermal treatment may be conducted before, during, and/or after formation of the dielectric material.
