Gallium is a rareearth element that is widely used in smart electronic devices and integratedcircuits as it provides the advantages of low energy consumption and highcomputational speeds. Due to its high boiling point and low melting point, itexhibits a wide temperature range in the liquid state. It tends to formsulfate, chloride, and phosphate complexes due to its high charge. Thecompounds of gallium find applications in advanced semiconductors and LEDchips.
Application
Gallium can be used as a precursor to synthesize:
Gallium nitride and other Ga-based compounds for optoelectronic applications.
Sulfur/gallium hybrid cathode material for lithium-sulfur batteries. The surface of Ga metal promotes the redox reaction of lithium polysulfides due to its electrocatalytic effect.
Ga-based liquid alloys for the fabrication offlexible electronic devices.

Previously unreported σ-phases in the ternary niobium-based systems Nb-X-Ga for X = Ru, Rh, Pd, Ir, Pt, Au, and Nb-X-Al for X = Ir, and Pt are presented, prepared by arc-melting followed by annealing at 1000 °C for 1 week.
Recent advances in high performance thermoelectric materials have garnered unprecedented attention owing to their capability of direct transformation of heat energy to useful electricity. Copper Telluride (Cu2Te), a member of the chalcogenide family has emerged as a state-of-the-art thermoelectric material
Self-assembled GaN rods were grown on sapphire by metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy using a simple two-step method that relies first on a nitridation step followed by GaN epitaxy. The mask-free rods formed without any additional catalyst. Most of the vertically
We demonstrate a very simple and generic protocol for ultrasensitive in-situ label-free detection of DNA hybridization using third generation poly(amidoamine)dendrimer (G3-PAMAM) functionalized GaN nanowires (NWs). PAMAM modified GaN NWs provides large density of docking site to immobilize significant number of
