Structure-property relations of oP32-Ge under pressure

The unit-cell parameters, systematic absences, and atomic parameters of the germanium allotrope oP32-Ge show continuous changes up to 6 GPa as shown by single-crystal diffraction analysis. Peak shape and diffuse scattering features remain about unchanged throughout the experiment. Hence, neither the average nor the defect structure behavior offers a structure-property explanation for pressure-induced superconductivity observed at about 2 GPa [1]. Angle dispersive x-ray diffraction reveals a sluggish transformation of oP32-Ge to the Ge-II polymorph, the transition begins around 8 GPa and is complete at 12 GPa, a behavior similar to that of Ge-I. The reconstructive transition was associated with the breakdown of crystals into a powder that was compressed to 32 GPa. Synchrotron infrared absorption measurements up to 8.5 GPa indicate an increase of the band gap of the oP32-Ge prior to its collapse at 8.5 GPa. We suggest that the onset of superconductivity is not associated with a major structural change or that such a change occurs in specific stress and temperature conditions.
