Germanium Disulfide (GeS2) General DescriptionA fine white powder made up primarily of germanium disulfide (GeS2) particles, it is also known as germanium sulfide or germanium(IV) sulfide. As with many closely related metallic sulfides, germanium disulfide powder is currently the center of heavy research into its potential in energy storage applications such as solid state batteries.
Germanium Sulfide (GeS2) Applications- Solid state batteries: Like many closely related compounds, germanium disulfide is of particular interest to researchers and manufacturers working on cutting-edge solid state battery designs. In particular, the material is of potential value in the production of cathodes for certain types of battery. Germanium sulfide nanoparticles have their most significant potential as an anode material for high-performance lithium-sulfur batteries.
- Electronics: The same properties which make germanium sulfides of interest to researchers working on energy storage technology gives the material some potential value in the production of other components and materials for use in advanced electronics.
- Catalysts: Germanium sulfide, like many sulfides, has unique potential in the production of more complex compounds for use in high-tech equipment and for other chemical reactions.
- Optical properties: Like many related materials, germanium sulfide at nanoscale diameters offers abundant unique optical properties, many of which are not yet fully understood. This makes this material of interest in research related to a wide variety of industries and fields, from electronics to photovoltaics to imaging technology.
