Loaʻa i ka Nano-germanium nā mea maikaʻi o ka ʻāʻī liʻiliʻi, ka helu absorption kiʻekiʻe, a me ka neʻe kiʻekiʻe. Ke hoʻohana ʻia i ka papa absorption o nā cell solar, hiki iā ia ke hoʻonui i ka absorption o ka infrared band spectrum o nā cell solar.

Ua lilo ʻo Germanium i mea waiwai electrode maikaʻi ʻole loa no nā pā lithium-ion ma muli o kona mana theoretical kiʻekiʻe.

ʻO 1600 mAh / g ka mana nui o ka germanium, a ʻo ka nui o ka nui e like me 8500 mAh / cm3. ʻO ka nui o ka diffusion o Li + ma Ge mea ma kahi o 400 mau manawa o ka Si, a ʻo ka conductivity uila he 104 mau manawa o ka Si, no laila ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka germanium no nā mea mana kiʻekiʻe a me ka mana kiʻekiʻe.

Ua hoʻomākaukau ʻia kahi haʻawina i kahi nano-germanium-tin/carbon composite material. Hiki i ka mea kalapona ke hoʻomaikaʻi i ka conductivity o germanium oiai e hoʻololi ana i kona hoʻololi leo. Hiki i ka hoʻohui ʻana i ka tin ke hoʻomaikaʻi hou i ka conductivity o ka mea. Eia kekahi, ʻo nā ʻāpana ʻelua o ka germanium a me ka tin he mau mana like ʻole no ka lawe ʻana / hoʻokomo lithium. Hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia ka ʻāpana ʻaʻole i komo i ka hopena ma ke ʻano he matrix e pale i ka hoʻololi ʻana o ka leo o ka mea ʻē aʻe i ka wā o ke kaʻina hana a me ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana, a laila e hoʻomaikaʻi ai i ka paʻa o ka electrode maikaʻi ʻole.
