kytkentäaine
Kytkentäaine, often translated as switching substance or dielectric switching material, refers to a class of materials that can undergo a reversible change in their electrical properties, typically from an insulating to a conducting state, upon application of an external stimulus. This stimulus can be thermal, electrical, optical, or mechanical. The fundamental principle behind kytkentäaine is the alteration of the material's electronic band structure or the creation of mobile charge carriers.
These materials are crucial for developing next-generation electronic devices, particularly in areas such as memory storage,
The research and development of kytkentäaine involve exploring various material compositions, including oxides, chalcogenides, and organic
