Evolution of crystal structures in GeTe during phase transition

Abstract We investigated changes in the crystal structure of GeTe during its phase transition. Using density functional theory (DFT) calculations, four possible crystal structures were identified: R3m, P1, Cm, and Fm3m. Among these, P1 and Cm were examined here for the first time. By calculating the...
