ABSTRACT:
A two-terminal non-linear resistive device including a first electrode, a second electrode, and a zinc sulfide layer interposed therebetween. The zinc sulfide layer contains at least one transition metal element as an impurity. The zinc sulfide layer is formed by sputtering using a sintered ZnS target including the transition metal element or a sintered ZnS target including the transition metal sulfide.
