GaAr Gallium Arsenide- used for fabrication of IC's Thyratron gas filled tube Si, Ge, GaAs follows tetrahedral or diamond lattice/Zine blends lattice Ne,He,Krypton,Argon are noble gases or inert gases since the valence shell is complete. Ionic bond is otherwise called as electrovalent bond Primary bonds are ionic bond, covalent bond and metallic bond. secondary bond are weak bonds. ionic bond readily form between alkali metals and halogen atoms ionic bod has high boiling and melting points. ionic bods are bad conductors of electricity in solid state and good conductors of electricity in molten state.
