· Pb0.94Sn0.06Se

Pb0.94Sn0.06Se is a lead-tin selenide alloy belonging to the IV-VI narrow-bandgap semiconductor family, engineered for infrared detection and thermal imaging applications. This material is used in thermoelectric devices and infrared photodetectors operating in the mid-to-long wavelength IR spectrum, where the tin doping modifies the bandgap and thermal properties of lead selenide to optimize performance for specific wavelength windows. Engineers select this alloy variant when balancing sensitivity, operating temperature range, and compatibility with existing detector architectures in applications where cost and reliability are weighed against exotic alternatives like mercury-cadmium-telluride.

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.
