Question:
why only Si,Ge are semiconductors in group 4 ?why not other group 4 elements are semiconductors?
Answer:
All elements of group 4 can act as semiconductors, not only Se and Ge. However, Se and Ge are better semiconductor materials because of the band gap present between the bonding and non-bonding electrons in them is very suitable for them to be efficient semiconductors.
