Zinc telluride

Description:
Zinc telluride (ZnTe) is a binary compound composed of zinc and tellurium, characterized by its semiconductor properties. It typically appears as a crystalline solid with a cubic zinc blende structure, exhibiting a bandgap that makes it suitable for various electronic and optoelectronic applications, including light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and laser diodes. ZnTe is known for its high electron mobility and photoconductivity, which are advantageous in photovoltaic cells and infrared detectors. The compound is also notable for its ability to form solid solutions with other II-VI semiconductors, allowing for tunable electronic properties. In terms of chemical stability, zinc telluride is relatively stable under ambient conditions but can react with strong acids and bases. It is important to handle ZnTe with care, as tellurium compounds can be toxic in certain forms. Overall, zinc telluride's unique properties make it a significant material in the fields of materials science and semiconductor technology.
