The first integrated circuit (see image above) was a germanium bar containing a simple amplifier circuit. It was made and tested in a research lab at Texas Instruments in 1958.
Both hybrid integrated circuits and monolithic integrated circuits were used in third generation computers. These integrated circuits contained from 4 to 100 transistors per integrated circuit. The image above shows hybrid integrated circuits of the type used in the IBM System 360 line of computers.

The first generation used vacuum tubes, the second used transistors, the third used integrated circuits, and the fourth used integrated circuits on a single computer chip.
The question doesn't make sense.
The disadvantages of integrated circuits include the limited range of IC resistors. Another disadvantage is that inductors cannot be formed using integrated circuits.
Integrated circuits are more commonly referred to as "microchips." They are used in everything from cellphones, personal computers, and even televisions.

Germanium is not used in integrated circuits. Silicon is.
