· HgTeBr

HgTeBr is a mixed halide semiconductor compound combining mercury, tellurium, and bromine elements, belonging to the family of mercury chalcohalides explored for optoelectronic and radiation detection applications. This material remains largely in the research phase, investigated primarily for its potential in infrared detection, X-ray/gamma-ray sensing, and narrow-bandgap semiconductor device development where its unique electronic structure offers tunable properties distinct from binary mercury telluride or cadmium telluride systems. Engineers would consider this compound for advanced detector systems requiring sensitivity in specific spectral ranges, though practical deployment is limited and material reproducibility and stability remain active research challenges.
