Phase-change memory (PCM), a promising candidate for next-generation non-volatile memories, exploits quenched glassy and thermodynamically stable crystalline states as reversibly switchable state variables. We demonstrate PCM functions…
Non-volatile resistive switching is demonstrated in memristors with nanocrystalline molybdenum disulfide (MoS$_2$) as the active material. The vertical heterostructures consist of silicon, vertically aligned MoS$_2$ and chrome / gold metal…
Deep Learning neural networks are pervasive, but traditional computer architectures are reaching the limits of being able to efficiently execute them for the large workloads of today. They are limited by the von Neumann bottleneck: the high…
Few-layer ReS2 field-effect transistors (FET) with a local floating gate (FG) of monolayer graphene separated by a thin h-BN tunnel layer for application to a non-volatile memory (NVM) device is designed and investigated. FG-NVM devices…
The application of amorphous chalcogenide alloys as data-storage media relies on their ability to undergo an extremely fast (10-100 ns) crystallisation once heated at sufficiently high temperature. However, the peculiar features that make…
We fabricated NiFe$_\textrm{2}$O$_\textrm{x}$ thin films on MgAl$_2$O$_4$(001) substrates by reactive dc magnetron co-sputtering varying the oxygen partial pressure during deposition. The fabrication of a variable material with oxygen…
Experimental and theoretical studies of spectral properties of chalcogenide Ge-S and As-Ge-S glasses and fibers are performed. A broad infrared (IR) luminescence band which covers the 1.2-2.3~$\mu$m range with a lifetime about 6~$\mu$s is…
The local geometrical randomness of metal foams brings complexities to the performance prediction of porous structures. Although the relative density is commonly deemed as the key factor, the stochasticity of internal cell sizes and shapes…
The notion of complex energy landscape underpins the intriguing dynamical behaviors in many complex systems ranging from polymers, to brain activity, to social networks and glass transitions. The spin glass state found in dilute magnetic…
