Abstract:The modern very large-scale integration systems based
on silicon
semiconductors are facing unprecedented challenges especially when
transistor feature size lowers further, due to the excruciating tunneling
effect and thermal management. Besides the common diamond cubic silicon,
numerous exotic silicon allotropes with outstanding properties can
emerge under high pressure, such as the metastable BC8 and metallic
β-tin structures. Despite much effort on the controlled synthesis
in experiment and theory, the effec… Show more
