Properties of the exotic metastable ST12 germanium allotrope

There has been disagreement on the properties of the ST12 phase of germanium due to the purity and size scale of samples synthesized so far. Here authors demonstrate a method for making pure, bulk samples and measure properties in agreement with computational predictions.
