Want this question answered?
LEDs are made from binary semiconductors (e.g. gallium aluminum indium phosphide) not unary semiconductors (e.g. silicon, germanium) because they can be made transparent to light. Silicon & germanium are opaque.
Silicon has a larger bandgap energy than germanium, which contributes to higher junction potentials and ability to operate at higher temperatures.
Elements of group 4a are used as semi-conductorse.g. silicon,germanium etc.
The element with chemical properties most like silicon is germanium. As an example, both are used in semiconductors.
A metalloid has some properties of both metals and nonmetals, and some, like silicon and germanium are semiconductors.
Germenium and silicon are the examples of Semiconductors.
Yes,silicon and germanium are semiconductors.
silicon and germanium
The types of intrinsic semiconductors are mainly: silicon & germanium
Yes

silicon is less sensitive towards temperature.It costs low compared to germanium,
Silicon and germanium are among the widely used semiconducting elements.
Silicon has a larger bandgap energy than germanium, which contributes to higher junction potentials and ability to operate at higher temperatures.
Some are, such as silicon and germanium. Others are non-conductors known as insulators, such as glass.
No metal is semiconductor. By definition metal is conductor. There are metalloids elements. Like silicon and germanium. They are semiconductors. There is no hard and fast definition of such elements.
