Gallium has more in common with indium as they are both metals whereas germanium is a metalloid.
because of germanium oxide´s (GeO2) high refractive index, about 10% of worldwide germanium consumption is from optical uses such as lenses to cameras and centres of fibre cablesanother use of germanium is as a catalyst for polymerisation of polyethylene terephthalate, the plastic in most water bottles. germanium is also used in an alloy with silicon for semiconductors that can be faster then those with only silicon.
There are many uses. Most of them are industrial uses.
Germanium is most commonly combined with silicon, oxygen and hydrogen
Germanium has many important uses that relate to science, medicine or even every day life. It is one of the largest used conductors used in transistors.
One of the most common uses is as a seasoning for food.
