Multi-level phase change memory using slow-quench operation: GST vs. GSST
In this paper, we demonstrate the use of a slow-quench waveform for multi-level phase change memory operation and compare the use of Ge 21 Sn 10 Sb 15 Te 54 (GSST) and Ge 2 Sb 2 Te 5 (GST). A faster multilevel operation is possible with the use of GSST, owing to its faster crystallization speed.
