General description

Germanane (GeH) is a 2D graphane analog with a direct band gap of 1.6 eV and electron mobility of 18000 cm2V-1s-1. It is a hydrogen terminated germanium (Ge) which can be synthesized by the topotactic deintercalation of CaGe2 crystals. Its crystal structure contains hexagonal Ge lattice with hydrogen atoms that are covalently attached to every Ge atom.
We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products that adhere to one of the four categories of Greener Alternatives. Germanane is an enabling product that serves as a promising 2D van der Waals material, offering high electron mobility and semiconducting properties, making it an excellent alternative for energy storage applications.
