abstract = {The cubic diamond (Fd-3m) group IVA element Si has been the
material driver of the electronics industry since its
inception. We report synthesis of a new cubic (Im-3m) group
IVA material, a GeSn solid solution, upon heating Ge and Sn
at pressures from 13 to 28 GPa using double-sided diamond
anvil laser-heating and large volume press methods. Both
methods were coupled with in-situ angle dispersive X-ray
diffraction characterization. The new material substantially
enriches the seminal group IVA alloy materials landscape by
introducing an eightfold coordinated cubic symmetry, which
markedly expands on the conventional tetrahedrally
coordinated cubic one. This cubic solid solution is formed,
despite Ge never adopting the Im-3m symmetry, melting
inhibiting subsequent Im-3m formation and reactant Ge and Sn
having unlike crystal structures and atomic radii at all
these pressures. This is hence achieved without adherence to
conventional formation criteria and routes to synthesis.
This advance creates fertile avenues for new materials
development.},
