The researchers' material of choice is an alloy of germanium, antimony and tellurium.

研究员选择的材料是、锑和碲合金。

To test this idea, he grew crystals of silicon that contained tiny particles of germanium in their lattices.

为了个观点，他研制出了硅晶体，晶体的点阵之间含着细小的颗粒。

Kilby built his ICs out of germanium, a rare and unstable material.

Kilby 用制造了他的 IC，是一种稀有且不稳定的材料。

Trace amounts of water, silicon, germanium, or magnesium might also influence a diamond’s shape.

微量的水、硅、或镁也可能影响钻石的形状。

These could be a liquid noble gas, germanium and silicon crystals, a refrigerant, or other materials.

些可能是液态惰性气体、和硅晶体、制冷剂或其他材料。

China supplies about 80% of the world's gallium and germanium.

中国供应全球约80%的和。

Gallium and germanium may also be useful in electric vehicles, nuclear energy and other devices, including weapons.

和还可用于电动汽车、核能和其他设备，包括武器。

So this is a small sample of germanium, named after Germany, so you can see the wonderful shiny surfaces.

所以是一个小的样品， 以德国命名，所以你可以看到美妙的闪亮表面。

America may source as much as 50% of its germanium supply from China, according to Jefferies, an investment bank.

据投资银行杰富瑞 (Jefferies) 称，美国可能有多达 50% 的供应来自中国。

But on July 3rd it brought out a bigger gun, saying that it would impose export controls on gallium and germanium, two metals used in high-end semiconductors.

但7月3日，它又拿出了更大的枪，称将对和两种用于高端半导体的金属实施出口管制。

The Chinese government may well grant these quite freely: after all, a total prohibition would hurt Chinese exporters, who sell a lot of germanium and gallium to American customers.

中国政府很可能会非常自由地批准些：毕竟，全面禁止会伤害中国出口商，他们向美国客户出售大量和。
