Incorporating Si into Sb2Se3: Tailoring Optical Phase Change Materials via Nanocomposites
We study the structural, optical, and thermal effects of adding silicon to Sb2Se3 and demonstrate that the as‐deposited solid solution phase segregates after electro‐thermal switching, creating a nanocomposite with effective‐medium properties and a phase‐change response.
