Phase change of Ge2Sb2Te5 under terahertz laser illumination

Ge2Sb2Te5 (GST) is the typical phase change material (PCM) that can reversibly transform between the amorphous (a) and crystalline (c) states. Because the optical properties are phase-dependent, GST has been widely used in various photonic applications, such as optical switches and non-volatile memo...
