Why is silicon preferred over germanium in the manufacture of semiconductor devices?
Answer / Dinesh Kumar Meena
Silicon is preferred over germanium in the manufacture of semiconductor devices due to several reasons: (1) Silicon has a larger bandgap, which makes it more stable and less prone to noise. (2) Silicon can be easily doped with impurities to control its conductivity, making it easier to fabricate complex devices. (3) Silicon is more abundant in nature than germanium, making it less expensive to produce semiconductor devices.
