:Germanium sulfide (GeS2)
Description:
Germanium sulfide (GeS2) 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 glassy properties when in amorphous form. GeS2 is a semiconductor and exhibits interesting optical properties, making it useful in various applications, including infrared optics and photonics. The compound has a relatively low melting point compared to many other metal sulfides and can be synthesized through various methods, including direct reaction of germanium with sulfur. GeS2 is also notable for its ability to form glasses, which are utilized in the production of optical materials. In terms of reactivity, it can hydrolyze in the presence of water, leading to the formation of germanium oxides and sulfur species. Safety precautions should be taken when handling GeS2, as it may pose health risks upon exposure. Overall, germanium sulfide is a significant material in both academic research and industrial applications due to its unique properties.

Germanium (IV) disulfide - 99.99%, total trace metals <100ppm
CAS:Germanium (IV) disulfide is a compound of germanium and sulfur. It is used in the production of zirconia, which is a ceramic material that has good resistance to heat and acid. Germanium (IV) disulfide is also used in semiconductor devices, such as light-emitting diodes, solar cells, and infrared detectors. The photoluminescence properties of germanium (IV) disulfide are dependent on the amount of light exposure. The higher the exposure to light, the greater the emission intensity. This compound reacts with hydrochloric acid to produce hydrogen sulfide gas. Germanium (IV) disulfide also has antibiotic properties that can be used against tetracycline-resistant bacteria by inhibiting protein synthesis and cell division.Formula:GeS2Purity:Min 99.99%Color and Shape:White PowderMolecular weight:136.76 g/mol
