Germanium sulfide (GeS)

Description:
Germanium sulfide (GeS) is an inorganic compound characterized by its binary composition of germanium and sulfur. It typically appears as a yellow to brown solid and is known for its semiconductor properties, making it useful in various electronic applications. GeS has a layered crystal structure, which contributes to its unique optical and electrical characteristics. The compound is relatively stable under ambient conditions but can react with moisture, leading to hydrolysis. GeS exhibits a high refractive index and is utilized in the fabrication of optical devices and as a precursor in the synthesis of other germanium compounds. Its thermal stability allows it to withstand moderate temperatures, although it may decompose at elevated temperatures. Additionally, germanium sulfide is of interest in materials science for its potential applications in photonics and as a component in thin-film technologies. Safety precautions should be taken when handling GeS, as it can be harmful if ingested or inhaled, and appropriate protective measures should be employed.
