Zn₀.₁₅Cd₀.₈₅Se is a cadmium selenide-based semiconductor alloy in which zinc partially substitutes for cadmium, altering the bandgap and lattice parameters of the host material. This compound is primarily of research and developmental interest rather than high-volume production, used in optoelectronic devices where tunable bandgap energies in the visible and near-infrared spectrum are required. The zinc incorporation modifies the electronic structure compared to pure CdSe, making it relevant for applications requiring wavelength engineering without switching to entirely different material systems.
