Vertical variable resistance memory devices

Abstract

A vertical variable resistance memory device including gate electrodes spaced apart from each other in a first direction on a substrate, each of the gate electrodes including graphene and extending in a second direction, the first direction being substantially perpendicular to an upper surface of the substrate and the second direction being substantially parallel to the upper surface of the substrate; first insulation patterns between the gate electrodes, each of the first insulation patterns including boron nitride (BN); and at least one pillar structure extending in the first direction through the gate electrodes and the first insulation patterns on the substrate, wherein the at least one pillar structure includes a vertical gate electrode extending in the first direction; and a variable resistance pattern on a sidewall of the vertical gate electrode.
