· Zn1 Cd1 Se2

Zn₁Cd₁Se₂ is a ternary II-VI semiconductor compound combining zinc, cadmium, and selenium in a mixed-cation chalcogenide structure. This material is primarily of research and development interest for optoelectronic and photonic applications where tunable bandgap and direct band-to-band transitions are advantageous; it represents an intermediate composition between binary ZnSe and CdSe semiconductors, offering potential for engineering custom electronic properties without the toxicity concerns of pure cadmium compounds in some formulations.
