· Zn0.99Hg0.01Se

Zn₀.₉₉Hg₀.₀₁Se is a dilute mercury-doped zinc selenide semiconductor, a II-VI compound engineered by partial substitution of Hg into the ZnSe lattice. This material is primarily a research-phase compound investigated for tuning the bandgap and optical properties of zinc selenide, with potential applications in infrared detection and optoelectronic devices that benefit from mercury's influence on electronic band structure. Unlike undoped ZnSe, the mercury addition modifies the material's response to infrared radiation, making it of interest for specialized sensing and detection systems where bandgap engineering is critical.

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.
