· JVASP-100420· Cd5TeS4

Cd₅TeS₄ is a quaternary cadmium telluride sulfide ceramic compound belonging to the family of II-VI semiconducting ceramics. This material is primarily of research interest for optoelectronic and photovoltaic applications, where its mixed anion composition (telluride-sulfide) offers tunable bandgap characteristics relative to binary CdTe or CdS semiconductors. While not yet established in high-volume industrial production, Cd₅TeS₄ represents exploration in solid-state physics for photodetectors, thin-film solar cells, and radiation detection devices where cadmium-based semiconductors have proven utility.

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.
