      abstract     = {Phase-change materials (PCMs) provide a unique combination
                      of properties. On transformation from the amorphous to
                      crystalline state, their optical properties change
                      drastically. Short optical or electrical pulses can be
                      utilized to switch between these states, making PCMs
                      attractive for photonic applications. We review recent
                      developments in PCMs and evaluate the potential for
                      all-photonic memories. Towards this goal, the progress and
                      existing challenges to realize waveguides with stepwise
                      adjustable transmission are presented. Colour-rendering and
                      nanopixel displays form another interesting application.
                      Finally, nanophotonic applications based on plasmonic
                      nanostructures are introduced. They provide reconfigurable,
                      non-volatile functionality enabling manipulation and control
                      of light. Requirements and perspectives to successfully
                      implement PCMs in emerging areas of photonics are
                      discussed.},
