Germanium oxide (GeO2) is a white, amphoteric solid that occurs in two crystalline forms: hexagonal (hexagonal, rutile-like structure) and tetragonal (tetragonal, stishovite-like structure). The hexagonal form is the stable phase at room temperature, while the tetragonal form is stable at high pressures. Germanium dioxide can be synthesized by direct oxidation of germanium with oxygen at high temperatures. It is an important material in the electronics industry, used as a high-refractive index material in optical fibers and lenses. It is also used in the manufacture of solar cells and transistors. Germanium dioxide is also a catalyst for various organic reactions, including the oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes and ketones. In addition, germanium dioxide is a component of some alloys and ceramics.'
