· Cd1 I2

Cadmium iodide (CdI₂) is an inorganic semiconductor compound belonging to the II-VI semiconductor family, characterized by a layered crystal structure. While primarily investigated in research contexts rather than high-volume industrial production, CdI₂ is explored for optoelectronic applications including radiation detection, X-ray/gamma-ray imaging, and photovoltaic devices due to its bandgap properties and potential for high-resolution sensing. The material is notable within the cadmium halide family for its layered structure, which influences its electronic transport properties and makes it a candidate for niche detector applications where sensitivity and spectral response are critical.

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
