CdSiP2 is a III-V ternary semiconductor compound combining cadmium, silicon, and phosphorus in a zincblende crystal structure. It is primarily investigated in research and specialized optoelectronic applications, particularly for infrared detection and laser systems operating in the mid-infrared spectrum where its bandgap and optical properties offer advantages over binary semiconductors like CdTe or InP.
