· Zn0.75Hg0.25Se

Zn₀.₇₅Hg₀.₂₅Se is a quaternary II-VI semiconductor alloy combining zinc, mercury, and selenium—a solid solution within the CdHgTe and ZnHgSe material families. This composition sits in the narrow band-gap region useful for infrared detection and is primarily investigated in research settings for tunable optoelectronic devices, though mercury content and lattice-matching challenges limit commercial adoption compared to more mature alternatives like HgCdTe.

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.
