Abstract

β-tin and the one-atom primitive hexagonal structure (γ phase), the two high-pressure polymorphs of Si, are related to each other by correlated displacement of atoms. This is interpreted in terms of a zone boundary mode softening ½(101)y . It is confirmed by detailed lattice dynamical calculations.
