Abstract
A storage deviceincludes a phase change layercontaining tellurium, and a diffusion layercontaining at least one of germanium, silicon, carbon, tin, aluminum, gallium, and indium and disposed at a position adjacent to the phase change layer. The phase change layeris capable of changing between a first state and a second state different from each other in electric resistance. The phase change layeris in a crystal state in any of the first state and the second state. A length of the diffusion layerin a direction orthogonal to a z direction is shorter than a length of the phase change layerin the direction orthogonal to the z direction.
