· JVASP-106834· Cd5Te4S

Cd₅Te₄S is a quaternary chalcogenide ceramic compound combining cadmium, tellurium, and sulfur. This is a research-phase material within the family of II-VI semiconductors and mixed-anion compounds, investigated for its potential in optoelectronic and photovoltaic applications where the combination of cationic and anionic elements offers tunable electronic properties. Engineering interest centers on thin-film photovoltaics, radiation detection, and infrared optics, where cadmium telluride and sulfide-based ceramics have established value; Cd₅Te₄S represents compositional optimization efforts to improve bandgap, thermal stability, or defect tolerance compared to binary or simpler ternary alternatives.

Regulatory Screening

Environmental

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.
