Hexagonal Si Ge with suitable alloy composition promises to become a new silicon compatible direct bandgap family of semiconductors. Theoretical calculations, however, predict that the binary end point of this family, the bulk hex-Ge crystal, is only weakly dipole active. This is in contrast to hex-Si Ge , where translation symmetry is broken by alloy disorder, permitting efficient light emission.

This has resulted in an "all guts no brain" approach to CVS.
