Sn0.03Pb0.97Se is a tin-lead selenide compound, a narrow-bandgap semiconductor belonging to the lead chalcogenide family with significant tin doping. This material is primarily investigated for infrared (IR) detection and thermal imaging applications, where its tunable bandgap and high sensitivity to mid- to long-wavelength IR radiation make it attractive for advanced sensing systems. The tin substitution modifies the electronic structure of lead selenide, enabling optimization of detector performance for specific wavelength ranges used in thermal cameras, radiometry, and military surveillance platforms.
