Time-resolved reversible optical switching of the ultralow-loss phase change material Sb2Se3 [PDF]
The antimony-based chalcogenide Sb2Se3 is a rapidly emerging material for photonic phase change applications owing to its ultra-low optical losses at telecommunication wavelengths in both crystalline and amorphous phases. Here, we investigate the dynamical response of these materials from nanoseconds to milliseconds under optical pumping conditions. We

Energy landscape and phase competition of CsV3Sb5-, CsV6Sb6-, and TbMn6Sn6-type Kagome materials [PDF]
Finding viable Kagome lattices is vital for materializing novel phenomena in quantum materials. In this work, we performed element substitutions on CsV3Sb5 with space group P6/mmm, TbMn6Sn6 with space group P6/mmm, and CsV6Sb6 with space group R-3 m, respectively, as the parent compounds.

Phase change material-based thermal energy storage
Summary: Phase change materials (PCMs) having a large latent heat during solid-liquid phase transition are promising for thermal energy storage applications. However, the relatively low thermal conductivity of the majority of promising PCMs (

Polariton nanophotonics using phase-change materials [PDF]
AbstractPolaritons formed by the coupling of light and material excitations enable light-matter interactions at the nanoscale beyond what is currently possible with conventional optics. However, novel techniques are required to control the propagation of polaritons at the nanoscale and to implement the first practical devices.

Structural colors and enhanced resolution at the nanoscale: Local structuring of phase-change materials using focused ion beam [PDF]
In the past few years, phase-change materials have become increasingly important in nano-photonics and optoelectronics. The advantages of sizeable optical contrast between phases and the additional degree of freedom from phase switching have been the driving force.
