Description
Cadmium Telluride CdTe 5N 6N 7N, is an odorless and black crystalline solid with molecular weight 240.01, melting point is 1041°C and density 6.2g/cm3. Cadmium Telluride is insoluble in water but resolve in nitrate acid, and resulting oxidation in moisture air under long time exposure. Cadmium Telluride is II-VI crystalline compound semiconductor synthesized from high purity cadmium and tellurium. Being high resistivity at room temperature and large linear attenuation coefficient, CdTe become to be considered a prospective material for the room temperature semiconductor detector application such as an infrared optical window and lens, thin film solar cell material, PIN semiconductor structure manufacturing, Infrared imaging, X-ray and gamma ray detection, optical devices, and photovotaic, epitaxial substrate; evaporation source of crystal sheet, electro-optic modulators designing or target materials epitaxial processing and other related fields. Besides, CdTe crystals can be used for spectral analysis and far infrared transmission and can be alloyed with mercury to make a versatile HgCdTe MCT infrared detector material, and alloyed with zinc to make CdZnTe solid x-ray and gamma ray detector.
