In this study, we have investigated crystallization properties of $Te_x(Sb_{85}Ge_{15})_{100-x}$ (x=0.3, 0.5, 1.0) thin films prepared by thermal evaporation. The change of reflectance according to phase change from amorphous to crystalline phases with annealing and exposure of diode laser is measured b the n&k analyzer and the surface morphology between amorphous and crystalline phase is analyzed by SEM and AFM. The difference in reflectance($DeltaR$) between amorphous and crystalline phase appears approximately 20% at the diode laser wavelength, 780nm in all prepared films. Especially, the reflectance difference,$DeltaR$ comes up to about 30% in $Te_{0.5}(Sb_{85}Ge_{15})_{99.5}$ thin film. Also, amorphous-to-crystalline phase change is observed in all prepared films. As a result of the measurement of the reflectance using diode laser, the reflectance is increased in proportion to the laser power and exposure time in all films. As a result of observing each film with the SEM and AFM, the surface morphology of the annealed and the exposed films are evidently increased than those of as-deposited films. The fast crystallization is occurred by increasing in Te content. Therefore, we conclude that the $Te_{0.5}(Sb_{85}Ge_{15})_{99.5}$ and $Te_1(Sb_{85}Ge_{15})_{99}$ thin films can be evaluated as an attractive optical recording medium with high contast ratio and fast erasing time due to crystallization.
