Applied Physics Letters, 104(12), 121105-. | Series/Report no.: | Applied physics letters | Abstract: | We demonstrate high-density, multi-level crystallization of a Ge2Sb2Te5 thin film using tightly focused femtosecond laser pulses. The submicron spots with 8 distinct data storage states are written on a 1.08 μm square grid. The significant change in reflectivity of every specific state of crystallized spot allows easy optical reading and identification. As a demonstration, two gray-scale images are written into the storage medium. Our results open up potential applications in ultra-fast two-dimensional parallel cognitive computing and holography. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/103927 http://hdl.handle.net/10220/19381 |
