Abstract
The paper addresses the calculation of the band structure fordifferent phases of the chalcogenide Ge2Sb2Te5 compound,which is raising considerable interest in view of the applications tothe nonvolatile-memory technology. The band structure is necessary fordetermining the charge- and heat-transport properties of the material.The band diagram of the face-centered cubic phase, which is the mostimportant one for the operation of phase-change memories, is shown forthe first time.
