Phase change materials for reconfigurable photonic integrated circuits

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Phase-change materials (PCMs) have gained increasing interest over the past decade for their potential in photonic applications. This article reviews their properties, keyadvantages over competing reconfigurable photonic technologies, and the challenges limiting their widespread adoption. It also highlights potential solutions currently being researched in the NEUROPULS European project.
