Be₁Se₁ is a binary II-VI semiconductor compound composed of beryllium and selenium, representing a wide-bandgap material in the beryllium chalcogenide family. This material is primarily of research and specialized industrial interest, with applications in optoelectronics and high-energy physics where its wide bandgap and radiation hardness are advantageous; it remains less common than alternative II-VI semiconductors (such as CdSe or ZnSe) due to beryllium's toxicity and the material's challenging synthesis and processing requirements.
