A team led by Carnegie’s Thomas Shiell and Timothy Strobel developed a new method for synthesizing a novel crystalline form of silicon with a hexagonal structure that could potentially be used to create next-generation electronic and energy devices with enhanced properties that exceed those of the “normal” cubic form of silicon used today.Their work is published in Physical Review Letters.
Silicon plays an outsized role in human life. It is the second most abundant element in the Earth’s crust….
