Liquid–vapour phase change is a useful and efficient process to transfer energy in nature, as well as in numerous domestic and industrial applications. Relatively recent advances in altering ...

Phase-change materials offer such utility and here recent progress is reviewed. ... the switching process is very fast, ... for example, a change of polarization state of the light, ...

How are real-time monitoring technologies, including electromagnetic sensors and high-speed X-ray diffraction, transforming heat treatment?

Tu1G-5 will cover phase-change RF switches on a production SiGe BiCMOS process with RF circuits. “The monolithic integration of phase-change material RF switches did not impact the performance of the ...

Phase changes are central to the world around us. Probably the most familiar example is when ice melts into water or water boils into steam, but phase changes also underlie heating systems and ...

Researchers make RAM from a phase change we don’t entirely understand Two ways to switch tiny patches of a material from semiconducting to metallic. John Timmer – Dec 18, 2018 3:41 pm | 71 ...

The phase-change devices presented in this research are already pretty small—squares that are about 100 nanometres across. What IBM's multi-artificial-neuron computer looks like. Credit: IBM ...

Glassy antimony makes monatomic phase change memory. The researchers, reporting their work in Science 10.1126/science.aaw1773, say they now plan to perform similar measurements on other classes of ...

After decades of looking, researchers have seen a string of atoms go through a 1D phase change so elusive that it could only happen inside a quantum simulator. “One motivation [for our ...
