are other names for phase change memory (PCM). Phase change memory employs the same principle as rewritable optical discs (CD-RWs, DVD-RWs, etc.), in which the bit cell is either in an ...

The realization of the complete phase-change cycle allows for computer studies of transition speeds and material stability, both crucial issues for any memory applications. Although a number of ...

A technical paper titled “Novel nanocomposite-superlattices for low energy and high stability nanoscale phase-change memory” was published by researchers at Stanford University, TSMC, NIST, University ...

Ritesh Agrawal poses with some of the equipment used in studying the new process, which dramatically lowers the energy cost of amorphization, bringing phase-change memory devices closer to ...

In this encyclopedia, "memory" always refers to RAM, the internal workspace of the computer, which loses its content when power is turned off (at least until MRAM, phase change memory or some ...
