Silicon Germanium Alloy Powder
Characteristics: Semiconducting
Due to its high mechanical strength, ability to operate at high temperatures while maintaining electronic stability, as well as a high resistance to oxidation, Silicon-Germanium has been the material of choice in thermoelectric devices being deployed in the most extreme environments. This material’s unique properties in transistor applications show improved performance in low-current and high-frequency regimes with compositionally and structurally tunable band-gap energies. Work with this material has demonstrated practicality in additive manufacturing with great potential to scale based on customer needs.
