PHASE UTILITY. “Optoelectronic phase change materials (PCM) have markedly different optical reflectivity and electrical conductivity in their disordered and ordered phases. They can be switched rapidly and reversibly between their better conducting crystalline and the more insulating amorphous phases. Owing to their properties, PCMs are used as non-volatile memory materials and bear promise as materials for programmable logic circuits.”
