Product Overview
Germanium rod is a high-purity semiconductor material, classified as a "metalloids" element, with excellent electrical conductivity. Its structure is similar to that of diamond—hard but brittle—with good infrared transparency. Germanium is a crucial semiconductor material widely used in electronics, optics, and detectors. It has a melting point of 937°C and a boiling point of 2830°C, offering unique advantages in physical and chemical properties.
