Abstract

Abstract A high‐throughput ion beam sputtering system is used to synthesize compositional gradient superlattice‐like (SLL) thin film libraries of Ge–Sb–Te alloys over the entire phase diagram. The optical properties and structural evolution of the Ge–Sb–Te combinatorial SLL thin film are investigated. A systematic screening over the annealing temperature, annealing time, and modulation period has elucidated the critical factors that affect the stability of the metastable phase and optical properties. It is found that amorphous stability and optical constant are highly dependent on the modulation period and chemical composition of the thin film. This data‐driven approach offers new perspectives for accelerating the development of new materials with excellent optical and amorphous stability and for exploring their mechanisms, by greatly expanding the dataset of Ge–Sb–Te alloys with SLL structures through high‐throughput experiments.
