Figure 1: Model configurations showing crystallization of GST materials in simulations of slow cooling starting from the liquid, and of annealing the amorphous state obtained by rapid melt quenching.

The Cu-Co granular alloys prepared by rapid quenching method show high GMR ratio of about 5.5% at room temperature. The influence of heat treatment conditions on GMR effect of the Co X Cu (100-X) ...

This requires a technique known as “melt quenching,” which rapidly heats and cools PCM materials. But, of course, a rapidly changing temperature usually requires too much energy to be ...
