First-principles study of the properties for crystal Ge2Sb2Te5 with Ge vacancy

Ge2Sb2Te5 (GST) is a technologically important phase-change material for data storage, where the fast reversible phase transition between crystalline and amorphous states is used for recording information. The effects of vacancies on crystal GST were investigated by ab initio calculations. Based on...
