Cadmium Selenide (CdSe)

Cadmium selenide (CdSe) is a solid, Greenish-brown or dark red solid powder, binary compound of cadmium and selenium. Cadmium selenide in its wurtzite (hexagonal) crystal structure is an important II-VI semiconductor. Common names for this compound are cadmium (II) selenide, cadmium selenide, and cadmoselite. Cadmium is a toxic heavy metal and appropriate precautions should be taken when handling it and its compounds. Selenides are toxic in large amounts. It can be used as powder, crystal chunks, single- and polycrystals, optic elements and other details manufactured from the crystals. Cadmium selenide is a semiconducting material, but has yet to find many applications in manufacturing. This material is transparent to infra-red (IR) light, and has seen limited use in windows for instruments utilizing IR light. Much current research on cadmium selenide has focused on nanoparticles. Researchers are concentrating on developing controlled syntheses of CdSe nanoparticles. In addition to synthesis, scientists are working to understand the properties of cadmium selenide, as well as apply these materials in useful ways. (BR)As a semiconductor CdSe has a band gap of 1.74 eV at 300 K. It is an n-type semiconductor, which is difficult to dope p-type, however p-type doping has been achieved using nitrogen. CdSe is also being developed for use in opto-electronic devices, laser diodes, nanosensing, and biomedical imaging. They are also used being tested for use in high-efficiency solar cells.
Most of the usefulness of CdSe stems from nanoparticles. Nanoparticles are just what the name implies, particles of CdSe that are 1–100 nm (1 nm = 10?9 m) in size. CdSe particles of this size exhibit a property known as quantum confinement. Quantum confinement results when the electrons in a material are confined to a very small volume. Quantum confinement is size dependent, meaning the properties of CdSe nanoparticles are tunable based on their size.
Since CdSe nanoparticles have a size dependent fluorescence spectrum, they are finding applications in optical devices such as laser diodes. Using these particles, engineers are able to manufacture laser diodes that cover a large part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
Along similar lines, doctors are developing these materials for use in biomedical imaging applications. Human tissue is permeable to far infra-red light. By injecting appropriately prepared CdSe nanoparticles into injured tissue, it may be possible to image the tissue in those injured areas.
