· K2GeSe3

K2GeSe3 is an inorganic ceramic compound composed of potassium, germanium, and selenium, belonging to the family of chalcogenide ceramics. This material is primarily of research and developmental interest rather than established industrial production, studied for its potential in infrared optics, solid-state ionics, and wide-bandgap semiconductor applications where its germanium-selenium framework offers tunable optical and electronic properties.
