Zn2 P2
semiconductor· Zn2 P2
Zn₂P₂ is a III-V semiconductor compound composed of zinc and phosphorus, belonging to the family of binary phosphide semiconductors. This material is primarily investigated in research contexts for optoelectronic and photovoltaic applications, where its direct bandgap and carrier transport properties make it a candidate for light-emitting devices, photodetectors, and solar cell absorber layers. Compared to more established semiconductors like GaAs or InP, zinc phosphide offers potential cost advantages and earth-abundance benefits, though it remains less commercialized and requires further development for practical device integration.
