A new methodology for manipulating transient‐amorphous states of phase‐change memory (PCM) materials is reported as a viable means to boost the speed, yet reduce the power consumption of PC memories, and is applicable to new forms of PCM‐based neuromorphic devices. Controlling multiple‐pulse interactions with PC materials may provide an opportunity toward developing a new paradigm for ultra‐fast neuromorphic computing.
