The discovery of the interesting optical properties of phase change materials (PCM) may open the door for photonic data storage again. These materials modify their optical constants which can be rapidly activated thermally, optically, or electronically. In this chapter, we discuss the optical properties of phase change material such as Sb2S3 and Ge2Sb2Te5 for visible and near infrared (NIR) photonics applications. In particular, we demonstrate PCM-based planar nanophotonic cavities for realizing tunable color filters, tunable wide-angle perfect absorption and tunable phase singularity, and Goos-Hänchen shift.
