Application

The Germanium single crystal disc, with its precise dimensions and (100) orientation, is engineered to harness the unique properties of germanium for advanced applications. This product serves as a vital component in the electronics industry, particularly in the manufacturing of rectifying devices such as germanium diodes and transistors. Its exceptional capability to transmit infrared radiation makes it indispensable in optical systems, including lenses and filters for infrared detection and guidance systems. Furthermore, the disc's integration into specialized alloys and glass production enhances its versatility, allowing for the creation of materials with superior refractivity and dispersion qualities, critical for wide-angle camera lenses and high-precision microscopes.
