Phase change materials are a type of emerging materials whose states will change under certain conditions, which then lead to changes in resistance. To study the characteristics of the phase change materials, a numerical simulation model of the resistive change unit based on the finite element method and the classic nucleation/growth theory is established, while the partial differential equations of electricity and heat conduction and the discrete formula of the finite element are also derived. According to the phase transition process of phase change materials, a crystalline-amorphous simulation model is also proposed in this paper to simulate the electrical and thermal properties and phase transition process of the resistive change unit. Simulations of the resistance change unit under single pulses with different amplitudes and widths as well as the simulations under continuous pulses are conducted in this paper. These results verify the characteristics of resistance change and can provide references for selecting the parameters of the resistance change units.

New finite difference method for numerical study of phase transition process in multi‐component alloys is proposed. The algorithm is based on conservative fully implicit scheme and the simultaneous determination of concentration distribution in solid and liquid phases, and the interface position. The numerical procedure appears to be unconditionally stable. It is compared with a commonly used technique, which determines concentration distribution and interface position (growth rate) consequently.

Zn and Co-ZIF-4 meta-stable compounds adopt the same topology of Zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIF)-4, but differ in the metal nodes (Zn versus Co). Using calorimetric and thermogravimetric analysis, here we characterized their differences in phase change processes. Upon heating, the framework of Co-ZIF-4 meta-stable crystal undergoes the crystal-to-amorphous phase transition at 590[Formula: see text]K, which is somewhat lower than the corresponding transition previously reported in the corresponding Zn-ZIF-4. In addition, the recrystallization rate for amorphous Co-ZIF-4 is relatively higher than the corresponding one of Zn-ZIF-4. Finally, the forming Co–zni crystal begins to melt at about 824[Formula: see text]K, accompanied by quick decomposition, whereas Zn–zni undergoes complete melting which finishes at around 850[Formula: see text]K without any decomposition. Based on their differences in chemistry for Co and Zn, we elucidated the chemical origin of the discrepancies of phase transition process for Zn and Co-ZIF-4 compounds upon heating.
