Cd1 Ag2 I4
semiconductor· Cd1 Ag2 I4
Cd₁Ag₂I₄ is a ternary semiconductor compound combining cadmium, silver, and iodine in a layered crystal structure. This material belongs to the family of halide semiconductors and is primarily of research interest for optoelectronic and photonic applications, particularly in X-ray and gamma-ray detection where its high atomic number iodine content provides strong radiation interaction. While not yet commercialized at scale, cadmium-silver-iodide semiconductors are investigated as alternatives to cadmium telluride and lead halide perovskites due to their tunable bandgap and potential for high-efficiency photon detection in medical imaging, nuclear monitoring, and space instrumentation.
