Abstract
En 中文
Quickly switching among different states (levels) is crucial for reconfigurable metamaterials and devices. In this study, the dynamics of establishment and transformation of five amorphous or near-amorphous intermediate states with obvious optical contrasts on Ge2Sb2Te5 phase-change thin films driven by ultrashort laser pulses were investigated using real-time reflectivity measurements. The reversible coding-recoding among the five optical levels was realized by using single-shot picosecond laser pulses with designed fluences. The optical constants, crystalline states and surface morphologies before and after ultrafast multi-level coding were also compared and analyzed. These results may lay a foundation for the further design and application of dynamically reconfigurable optical/photonic devices.
