Applications
Gallium has a wide range of applications in various fields, mainly including the following aspects:
Semiconductor materials: Gallium compounds are high-quality semiconductor materials widely used in the manufacture
of high-speed electronic devices, optoelectronic devices, and solar cells. For example, gallium arsenide (GaAs) and gallium
nitride (GaN) have excellent electrical properties and high-temperature characteristics, making them suitable for the
manufacturing of high-frequency electronic devices and high-power electronic devices.
Alloy: Gallium can form alloys with other metals to enhance its properties and performance. For example, gallium alloys
are used to prepare low melting point alloys such as gallium indium alloys (commonly used in thermometers) and gallium
bismuth alloys (commonly used in fire alarm devices).
Solar cells: Gallium is used in the manufacturing of solar cells, such as gallium arsenide solar cells, which have characteristics
such as heat resistance and radiation resistance, and have a very high photoelectric conversion rate.
Medical applications: Gallium can be used for medical diagnosis and treatment. For example, using gallium citrate (67Ga) to
diagnose lung cancer and liver cancer. Gallium alloys can also be used in medical devices and materials, such as dental fillings
and thermometers.
Glass manufacturing: Gallium can enhance the refractive index of glass and is used to manufacture special optical glass.
Gallium has a particularly strong ability to reflect light and can be used in reflective mirrors.
Chemical industry: Gallium halides have high activity and can be used in polymerization and dehydration processes, such as
using gallium trichloride (GaCl3) as a catalyst to produce ethylbenzene, propylbenzene, and ketones.
The physical and chemical properties of gallium: Pure liquid gallium is easily oxidized in air, forming an oxide film.
At room temperature, gallium has the highest electrical and thermal conductivity.
The application of gallium in the electronics industry: Gallium is known as the "backbone" of the electronics industry and
is widely used in fields such as integrated circuits and photovoltaic power generation. China, as the largest producer and
exporter of gallium, has listed it as a strategic reserve metal
