How might a gallium chip compare with a germanium chip?

Gallium is a metal, not a semiconductor. You cannot build a transistor or even a diode with a piece of metal, forget an IC chip containing several transistors.To create a gallium based semiconductor, it must be ALLOYED with one or more of the following elements: nitrogen, phosphorus, arsenic, or antimony. The simplest semiconductor alloys are: gallium nitride, gallium phosphide, gallium arsenide, and gallium antimonide. Examples of other semiconductor alloys are: gallium nitride phosphide, gallium phosphide arsenide, etc. (these are used in some types of LEDs).The most common gallium alloy semiconductor for making transistors and IC chips is gallium arsenide. Compared to both silicon and germanium, transistors made of gallium arsenide are significantly faster, and additional speed can be obtained by using nonsaturating logic circuits like ECL.


Why is gallium so much more expensive?

because of supply and demand,. Supply is limited because it is not only a comparatively rare element but the extraction is expensive. Demand has grown because the compounds gallium nitride, gallium phosphide are used in electronic devices.


Why 3rd and 5th group elements only are used in the manufacture of optoelectronic devices?

Well they are not. Silicon is used in solar panels - an optoelectronic device. What is true that the nature of the semiconductors made by reacting group 13 and group 15 (old school group III and group V) generically called the III/V semiconductors. Examples are Gallium nitride, gallium phosphide, gallium arsenide, indium phosphide. The key is the nature of the band gap and how this can be affected by doping. Gallium nitride is used in many applications, and is used with suitable doping in blu-ray disc reader laser diodes


Where can you find gallium?

Gallium as gallium nitride, GaN is found in leds and laser diodes in Blu-ray disc readers. In nature gallium is found in trace amounts in bauxite along with aluminium and in zinc ores.

What is the compound for Gallium nitrate?

Gallium does not occur naturally in its pure form put as a trace salt. Gallium is in the same period as Aluminium. Gallium arsenide is a super conductor. GaAs Gallium nitride is a semiconductor. GaN Galinstan is an alloy with indium and tin. Gallium is used medically to trace iron uptake. It also seeps into the crystal structures of other metals and thus change their properties when forming an alloy.
