Silicon’s Hidden Form: Unlocking the Mystery of Si-XIII
![Silicon’s transition between the Si-XIII phase and its more stable, metastable counterparts-including BC8, R8, and the [latex]d_c[/latex] and [latex]h_d[/latex] phases-is not singular, but rather unfolds along multiple minimum energy pathways, as determined by Solid State Nudged Elastic Band calculations, suggesting a complex energy landscape governing phase transformations in this foundational material.](https://arxiv.org/html/2602.24248v1/2602.24248v1/x4.png)
After decades of pursuit, researchers have finally determined the precise atomic structure of the elusive Si-XIII phase of silicon, resolving a long-standing challenge in materials science.
