Abstract
Phase change materials (PCMs) are important building blocks in solid-state memory and photonic devices. Solution-based processing promises large-area, cost-effective, conformal coating of optical PCMs (O-PCMs) for photonic applications. In this work, a solution processing route was developed for Ge2Sb2Se4Te1 (GSST), a target PCM of interest due to its large optical contrast, broadband transparency, and improved glass-forming capability. An alkahest solvent mixture of ethanedithiol and ethylenediamine was used as a solvent system to fabricate solution-derived GSST thin films and films from these solutions were prepared and characterized using SEM, XRD, and Raman spectroscopy.
