In 4H-Ge the lowest-energy optical transition is parity-forbidden, producing a radiative lifetime seven orders of magnitude longer than in 2H- or 6H-Ge; single-Si substitution lifts the selection rule and shortens the lifetime by up to two orders of magnitude.

Optical selection rules in hexagonal Ge polytypes and their lifting by symmetry perturbation
In 4H-Ge the lowest-energy optical transition is parity-forbidden, producing a radiative lifetime seven orders of magnitude longer than in 2H- or 6H-Ge; single-Si substitution lifts the selection rule and shortens the lifetime by up to two orders of magnitude.
