GeS (Germanium sulfide)

GeS Germanium Sulfide GeS is a semiconductor with an indirect band gap of 1.6 eV. The layers are stacked together via van der Waals interactions and can be exfoliated into thin 2D layers. GeS belongs to the group-14 transition metal monochalcogenides. To buy GeS crystals please click here.
