In this paper, a PID controller is applied to control the temperature to a proposed model derived of the Newton’s law of cooling. The control problem considers a second-order model obtained that the rate at which the temperature of a body decreases with time is proportional to the difference in temperature between the body and its surroundings. This model represents a mathematical function the device's output for each possible input with initial conditions zero.

This document shows time-domain thermoreflectance (TDTR) measurements on blanket phase change multilayers [Fig. S1] and electro-thermal simulations of confined PCM cells [Fig. S2]. The extracted thermal resistance per unit area obtained from our measured TDTR signal ratio vs. time delay in Fig. S1 reveals that Bi2Te3 layer only introduces ~13% additional thermal resistance in the PCM stack. On the other hand, Fig. S2 shows the electro-thermal simulation of confined cells with 4 nm Bi2Te3 and 50 nm GST layer with a BE (TiN) diameter of 150 nm in Fig.
