"textContent": "A memory cell and method for controlling the resistance properties in a memory material are provided. The method comprises: forming manganite; annealing the manganite in an oxygen atmosphere; controlling the oxygen content in the manganite in response to the annealing; and, controlling resistance through the manganite in response to the oxygen content. The manganite is perovskite-type manganese oxides with the general formula RE 1-x AE x MnO y , where RE is a rare earth ion and AE is an alkaline-earth ion, with x in the range between 0.1 and 0.5. Controlling the oxygen content in the manganite includes forming an oxygen-rich RE 1-x AE x MnO y region where y is greater than 3. A low resistance results in the oxygen-rich manganite region. When y is less than 3, a high resistance is formed. More specifically, the process forms a low resistance oxygen-rich manganite region adjacent an oxygen-deficient high resistance manganite region.",
