· UHgO3

UHgO3 is an experimental ternary oxide semiconductor containing uranium and mercury, representing a rare composition within the broader class of heavy-metal oxide semiconductors. This compound exists primarily in research contexts exploring novel electronic and photonic properties, as such uranium-mercury systems are not established in commercial production. The material belongs to a family of compounds being investigated for potential applications in radiation detection, high-energy physics instrumentation, and solid-state device research, where the combination of heavy elements and semiconductor behavior offers unique advantages over conventional semiconductors—though practical manufacturing, stability, and regulatory considerations around uranium content currently limit real-world deployment.

Export Control

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.
