摘要: The migration barrier energies of the nitrogen atom and N2 molecule, activation barriers for dissociation formation in Ge2Sb2Te5 were calculated by ab-initio methods. Various transition metastable states found along pathway. Migration up to 1.19 eV suggest that it is difficult move from one site any other or diffuse out although doped energetically less stable with respect vacuum. was hardly expected dissociate into atoms vice versa.
