Research Summary
Germanium is a chemical element with the symbol Ge and atomic number 32. It is a metalloid in Group 14 of the periodic table and shares properties with both metals and nonmetals. Germanium was an important semiconductor material in the early history of electronics and was used extensively in early transistors. While its use in electronics has diminished with the advent of silicon-based technology, germanium remains relevant in certain optical applications and is used in the production of infrared optics and fiber optics. It is often obtained as a byproduct of zinc ore processing. Germanium has interesting optical and electronic properties, and ongoing research explores its potential applications in emerging technologies, such as thermoelectric devices and optoelectronics.
The major global manufacturers of Germanium include Yunnan Germanium, Umicore, Yunnan Chihong Zn & Ge, Teck, Zhonghao Technology, AXT Inc, JSC Germanium, Shenzhen Zhongjin Lingnan, PPM Pure Metals, Sihuan Zinc & Germanium, Indium Corporation, Photonic Sense, GEAPP, etc. The global players competition landscape in this report is divided into three tiers.
