In contrast, rhombohedral stacking, or ABC stacking, features a unidirectional, or chiral, 60-degree rotation for each successive layer. "Hexagonal stacking is more structurally stable ...

Researchers have long shown that the cubic phase of germanium telluride (GeTe) exhibits an unexpected rise in lattice thermal ... where its phase changes from a rhombohedral structure to a cubic ...
