“…In addition, light–GST material interaction is accompanied by the appearance of a series of effects, such as laser crystallization, [ 7 ] recrystallization, [ 8 ] reamorphization, [ 9,10 ] whole or partial material ablation, and formation of laser‐induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS or ripples). [ 11–16 ] In the last case, the possibility to make phase transitions of GST with comparative ease leads to the formation of LIPSS with combined phase states – amorphous and crystalline ones. [ 11,13–16 ] It should be noted that the ripples attract the attention currently because many researchers see them as an alternative to lithography process, for example.…”
