Germanium Isotopes

<p>Enrich or deplete germanium in any of its five natural isotopes, with ultra-high isotopic purity, for cutting-edge scientific and industrial applications such as quantum computing and microelectronics.</p>

• Challenges

  • Secure enriched germanium (⁷²Ge) to meet the growing needs of the microelectronics sector
  • Anticipate the emergence of quantum technologies with ⁷³Ge-depleted germanium
  • Access ⁷⁶Ge for fundamental research on double beta decay

• Our Solution

  • Rely on a proven gas centrifugation process for isotopic separation of any of the five stable germanium isotopes (⁷⁰Ge, ⁷²Ge, ⁷³Ge, ⁷⁴Ge, ⁷⁶Ge)
  • Achieve exceptional isotopic purity to ensure performance, reproducibility, and compatibility with advanced applications
  • Secure your supply chain through a 100% European industrial platform

• Key Features

  • 60+ years of industrial expertise at the Tricastin site
  • Isotopic separation using gas centrifugation
  • Delivery in gaseous form: germanium tetrafluoride (GeF₄) or germane (GeH₄)
  • Partnership options available for chemical conversion services in germane (GeH₄)
