Germanium tetrachloride (GeCl4), also known as tetrachlorogermane, is a colorless, volatile liquid at room temperature with a pungent odor. It is a compound of germanium and chlorine and is used in the semiconductor industry and in the production of germanium-based compounds. Here is a detailed overview of the physical properties of germanium tetrachloride:
Uses
GeCl4 is used in the semiconductor industry for the production of germanium-based compounds and in the doping of semiconductors.
It is also used in the chemical synthesis of other germanium compounds.
Safety
Germanium tetrachloride is corrosive and can cause severe irritation or burns to the eyes, skin, and respiratory tract. It is important to handle germanium tetrachloride with appropriate safety measures, including proper ventilation and personal protective equipment (PPE).
It is also important to store and transport GeCl4 in a way that prevents contact with moisture, as it can react violently with water.
