Silicon and Germanium are not used to make LEDs.
LEDs are made with binary semiconductors, like:
it is made of silicon or germanium.
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.
products made by silicon are more stable than those made by germanium
germanium or silicon crystal
Silicon
Germanium is not used in integrated circuits. Silicon is.
the leakage current of silicon is less when compared with the leakage current of germanium.. hence scr's are made up of silicon than germanium.. hope tis one is useful to u all!- Vignesh.L(engineer, 1st year)
Silicon and Germanium are the elements used in transistors
germanium
germanium
Yes,silicon and germanium are semiconductors.
Silicon Germanium Gallium Arsenide (SiGeAs) is a semiconductor material that combines silicon, germanium, gallium, and arsenic. It is used in high-frequency applications due to its superior electron mobility. Silicon Carbide (SiC) is a compound semiconductor made of silicon and carbon. It has excellent thermal conductivity and can operate at high temperatures, making it ideal for power electronics and high-temperature applications.
