abstract = {The amorphous, liquid and crystalline phases of the phase
change material Ge(2)Sb(2)Te(5) (GST) have been studied by
means of density functional/molecular dynamics simulations.
The large sample (460 atoms and 52 vacancies in the unit
cell) and long simulations (hundreds of picoseconds) provide
much new information. Here we extend our original analysis
(2007 Phys. Rev. B 76 235201) in important ways: partial
coordination numbers and radial distribution functions, bond
angle distributions, new local order parameters, vibration
frequencies, and the charges on atoms and vacancies. The
valence band densities of states in amorphous and
crystalline GST are compared with ones from x-ray
photoemission spectroscopy. The results for the liquid phase
are new and those for the crystalline phase much expanded.
GST shows pronounced AB alternation (A: Ge, Sb; B: Te),
especially in its amorphous phase, and ABAB squares play a
central role in the amorphous to crystalline transition. We
comment on earlier speculations concerning the nature of the
amorphous to crystalline transition.},
