I-Nano-germanium ineenzuzo ze-gap yebhendi encinci, i-coefficient yokufunxa ephezulu, kunye nokuhamba okuphezulu. Xa isetyenziswe kumaleko wokufunxa weeseli zelanga, inokwandisa ngokufanelekileyo ukufunxa kwe-infrared band spectrum yeeseli zelanga.

I-Germanium iye yaba yeyona nto ithembisayo ye-electrode engalunganga yebhetri ye-lithium-ion ngenxa yomthamo wayo ophezulu wethiyori.

Umthamo wethiyori yobunzima begermanium yi-1600 mAh/g, kwaye umthamo wevolumu uphezulu njenge-8500 mAh/cm3. Izinga lokusasazwa kwe-Li + kwizinto ze-Ge malunga namaxesha angama-400 e-Si, kunye ne-electronic conductivity yi-104 amaxesha e-Si, ngoko ke i-germanium ifaneleka ngakumbi kwizixhobo eziphezulu zangoku kunye neziphezulu zamandla.

Uphononongo lulungiselele i-nano-germanium-tin/carbon composite material. Izinto zekhabhoni zinokuphucula i-conductivity ye-germanium ngelixa ulungelelanisa ukuguqulwa kwevolumu yayo. Ukongezwa kwe-tin kunokuphucula ngakumbi ukuqhutyelwa kwezinto. Ukongezelela, amacandelo amabini e-germanium kunye ne-tin aneendlela ezahlukeneyo zokukhutshwa kwe-lithium / ukufakwa. Icandelo elingathathi nxaxheba kwi-reaction linokusetyenziswa njenge-matrix ukuphazamisa ukuguqulwa komthamo welinye icandelo ngexesha lokuhlawuliswa kunye nokukhupha inkqubo, ngaloo ndlela kuphuculwe ukuzinza kwesakhiwo se-electrode engalunganga.
