Abstract:
We describe how the crystallization kinetics of a suite of phase-change systems can be controlled by using a single-shot treatment via "initial crystallization" effects. Ultrarapid and highly stable phase-change structures (with excellent characteristics), viz. conventional and sub-10 nm sized cells (400 ps switching and 368 K for 10 year data retention), stackable cells (900 ps switching and 1 × 106 cycles for similar "switching-on" voltages), and multilevel configurations (800 ps switching and resistance-drift power-law coefficients <0.11) have been demonstrated. Material measurements and thermal calculations also reveal the origin of the pretreatment-assisted increase in crystallization rates and the thermal diffusion in chalcogenide structures, respectively.

Capacitance: Single-Phase And Three-Phase Line
Single-Phase Lines
Consider a single-phase, two-wire transmission line with equal phase spacing energized by a voltage source. One conductor carries a uniform positive charge, while the other carries an equal negative charge. The capacitance C of the line can be derived from the voltage V between the conductors. For a one-meter section of the line, the capacitance is given...

Pulse Rate and its Significance
Pulse rate, often measured in beats per minute (bpm), reflects the heart rate (HR), which is influenced by numerous factors such as stress, physical activity, and hormonal changes. A normal resting adult pulse rate falls...
