Nanostructured thin film absorbers embedded with phase-change material (PCM) can provide large level of absorption intensity tunability in the near-infrared region. Germanium Antimonide Tellurite (Ge2Sb1Te4-GST) was employed as designed structures. The structure is composed a periodic grating-type array 200 nm thick Au buried 100 nm-thick GST layer from top layer. period gratings 2 μm and each period, width 0.5 μm. selected active PCM because its optical properties undergo substantial change...
