Germanium’s Semiconducting and Optical Properties Probed Under Pressure
Researchers at Carnegie Institution for Science and Yanshan University synthesized sufficient ST12-germanium and, using a variety of spectroscopic techniques, quantified its optical band gap and its electrical and thermal properties, which will help define its potential for practical applications such as infrared detection and imaging technology.
