Abstract
The article considers the process of development of germanium single crystal growth technology by the Czochralsky method, which allowed the application of germanium properties in IR optics and in gamma radiation detection. It is expected that germanium may return to optoelectronics again: recent developments in the cultivation of dislocation-free crystals have shown that germanium is a promising material for next-generation nanoscale electronic devices and for the integration of optical functions on logic circuits.
