Manganese monoselenide (MnSe) is a binary compound semiconductor with a rock salt crystal structure, belonging to the II-VI semiconductor family. It is primarily investigated in research settings for optoelectronic and spintronic applications, where its magnetic properties and semiconductor behavior offer potential advantages in devices requiring both electronic and magnetic functionality. While not widely deployed in mainstream commercial applications, MnSe and related manganese chalcogenides are of interest for next-generation quantum devices, magnetic sensors, and photonic systems where conventional semiconductors are insufficient.
