Abstract
According to one embodiment, a first electrode includes a metal element. A second electrode includes a semiconductor element. A third electrode includes a metal element. A first variable resistive layer is arranged between the first electrode and the second electrode and is capable of reversibly changing a resistance by filament formation and dissolution of the metal element of the first electrode. A second variable resistive layer is arranged between the second electrode and the third electrode and is capable of reversibly changing a resistance by filament formation and dissolution of the metal element of the third electrode.
