Abstract: A chalcogenide material may include germanium (Ge), arsenic (As), selenium (Se) and from 0.5 to 10 at % of at least one group 13 element. A variable resistance memory device may include a first electrode, a second electrode, and a chalcogenide film interposed between the first electrode and the second electrode and including from 0.5 to 10 at % of at least one group 13 element. In addition, an electronic device may include a semiconductor memory. The semiconductor memory may include a column line, a row line intersecting the column line, and a memory cell positioned between the column line and the row line, wherein the memory cell comprises a chalcogenide film including germanium (Ge), arsenic (As), selenium (Se), and from 0.5 to 10 at % of at least one group 13 element.
