· KCeSe4

KCeSe₄ is a rare-earth selenide compound that functions as a semiconductor material, belonging to the family of metal selenides with potential for optoelectronic and photovoltaic applications. This is primarily a research-phase material studied for its electronic band structure and light-interaction properties; it has not yet achieved widespread commercial deployment. The material is notable within the rare-earth semiconductor family for its composition combining potassium, cerium, and selenium, making it relevant to researchers exploring novel semiconductors for infrared detection, thermoelectric devices, or next-generation photovoltaic systems where conventional materials face performance limitations.
