Zinc selenide is the inorganic compound with the formula ZnSe. It is a lemon-yellow solid although most samples have a duller color due to the effects of oxidation. It is an intrinsic semiconductor with a band gap of about 2.70 eV at 25 °C (77 °F), equivalent to a wavelength of 459 nm.
Zinc selenide was the first material for blue LEDs, but gallium nitride dominates that market. [90] Cadmium selenide was an important component in quantum dots. [citation needed] Sheets of amorphous selenium convert X-ray images to patterns of charge in xeroradiography and in solid-state, flat-panel X-ray cameras. [91]
Stilleite is a selenide mineral, zinc selenide, with the formula Zn Se.It has been found only as microscopic gray crystals occurring as inclusions in linnaeite associated with other selenide and sulfides.
This can be especially valuable for targeting resistant or hard-to-reach cancer cells. Personalized medicine: The versatility of nanomaterials allows for the development of personalized cancer therapies. Tailoring nanoparticle properties to match an individual's specific cancer type and genetic makeup can improve treatment outcomes.
Basal-cell carcinoma (BCC), also known as basal-cell cancer, basalioma [7] or rodent ulcer, [8] is the most common type of skin cancer. [2] It often appears as a painless raised area of skin, which may be shiny with small blood vessels running over it . [ 1 ]
A compound semiconductor is a semiconductor compound composed of chemical elements of at least two different species. These semiconductors form for example in periodic table groups 13–15 (old groups III–V), for example of elements from the Boron group (old group III, boron, aluminium, gallium, indium) and from group 15 (old group V, nitrogen, phosphorus, arsenic, antimony, bismuth).
In a study comparing CdSe/ZnS and CdSe/ZnSe nanocrystals, the former was found to have PL yield 84% of the latter’s, due to a lattice mismatch. To study the double-shell system, after synthesis of the core CdSe nanocrystals, a layer of ZnSe was coated prior to the ZnS outer shell, leading to an improvement in fluorescent efficiency by 70%.
Sample of cadmium selenide, a pigment. The parent inorganic selenide is hydrogen selenide (H 2 Se). It is a colorless, malodorous, toxic gas. It dissolves in aqueous solution, to give the hydrogenselenide or biselenide ion HSe −. At higher pH, selenide forms. Solutions of hydrogen selenide and selenide are oxidized by air to give elemental ...
