Problems solved by technology

However, the biggest weakness of the Sb-Te system is that the crystallization activation energy is small, which makes its amorphous state have poor thermal stability, which greatly limits the application and development of the Sb-Te system in the direction of high data retention.
Therefore, in the actual industrial mass production process, the applicability of the Sb-Te material system is improved by element doping, but the existing element doping modification often cannot meet the performance requirements of phase change materials in the field.
