Abstract
A switching element includes: a first electrode supplying metal ions; a second electrode less ionizable than the first electrode; and an ion conducting layer arranged between the first electrode and the second electrode and containing a metal oxide that can conduct the metal ions. The ion conducting layer includes two or more layers of different types, and one of the ion conducting layers that is closest to the first electrode has a larger diffusion coefficient for the metal ions than that of the other ion conducting layer(s).
