GeSb2Te4 is a chalcogenide compound belonging to the GST (Germanium-Antimony-Tellurium) family, widely recognized as a phase-change material (PCM) that reversibly transitions between amorphous and crystalline states. This material is the active component in rewritable optical media (DVDs, Blu-rays) and emerging non-volatile memory technologies, where rapid, reversible crystallization enables reliable data storage with excellent cyclability and thermal stability compared to conventional alternatives.
