Description and Uses

Germanium is extracted from zinc ores in a very complicated process as it has aqueous properties similar to those of zinc. Once the germanium/zinc mixture has been sufficiently enriched with germanium, it is heated in HCl with Cl2 in order to allow the formation of germanium tetrachloride (GeCl2).

The product can serve as one of the precursors for the formation of highly porous ZrO2:Tb3+ nanophosphor with excellent tunable photoluminescence and photocatalytic activities.
