ZnBSe₂ is a ternary ceramic compound combining zinc, boron, and selenium elements, belonging to the family of wide-bandgap semiconductors and optical ceramics. This material is primarily of research and developmental interest for optoelectronic and photonic applications where its compound semiconductor properties may enable UV-to-infrared wavelength tuning and high-temperature stability. While not yet widely deployed in mature commercial products, materials in this compound family are investigated for next-generation applications requiring chemically resistant optical windows, radiation detectors, or high-power electronic devices where conventional semiconductors reach their performance limits.
