Ge2Sb2Te5 nanowires (NWs) were synthesized by vaporizing GeTe, Sb, and Te precursors assisted by metal catalysts. Current-voltage measurement of the Ge2Sb2Te5 NW device displays fast and reversible switching between two distinct resistive states, which is due to the crystalline-amorphous phase

Despite being disparaged for their malodorous and toxic demeanour, compounds of selenium, a bio-essential element, and tellurium, offer possibilities as therapeutic agents. Herein, their potential use as drugs, for example, as anti-viral, anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory agents, etc., will be surveyed along
