Understanding and Designing Phase Change Materials: Insights from Atom Probe Tomography

Phase Change Materials (PCMs) can be rapidly and reversibly switched between their amorphous and crystalline state; a transition which is accompanied by a pronounced change of optoelectronic properties.

Phase Change Materials (PCMs) can be rapidly and reversibly switched between their amorphous and crystalline state; a transition which is accompanied by a pronounced change of optoelectronic properties. Here progress is reviewed to explain these property changes, focusing on…
