Germane is the actinic admixture with the blueprint GeH4, and the germanium
alternation of methane. It is the simplest germanium hydride and one of the a
lot of advantageous compounds of germanium. Like the accompanying compounds
silane and methane, germane is tetrahedral. It burns in air to aftermath GeO2
and water. Germane is a accumulation 14 hydride.
The gas decomposes abreast 600K to germanium and hydrogen. Because of its
thermal lability, germane is acclimated in the semiconductor industry for the
epitaxial advance of germanium by MOVPE or actinic axle epitaxy.
Organogermanium precursors (e.g. isobutylgermane, alkylgermanium trichlorides,
and dimethylaminogermanium trichloride) accept been advised as beneath chancy
aqueous alternatives to germane for degradation of Ge-containing films by
MOVPE.
