· CdInCuSe3

CdInCuSe₃ is a quaternary semiconductor compound composed of cadmium, indium, copper, and selenium, belonging to the chalcogenide family of semiconductors. This material is primarily investigated in research contexts for photovoltaic and optoelectronic applications, where its tunable bandgap and potential for thin-film solar cells position it as an alternative to traditional CdTe or CIGS (copper indium gallium selenide) absorber layers. The incorporation of copper and the specific stoichiometry offers potential advantages in cost reduction and efficiency optimization compared to ternary semiconductor systems, though engineering adoption remains limited to specialized research and development rather than mature industrial production.

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.
