A Brief Study on Characteristics, Properties, and Applications of CdSe

  • Conference paper
  • First Online:
Innovation in Materials Science and Engineering

Abstract

This paper summarizes the existing information needed to describe various properties of cadmium selenide semiconductor material. The characteristics or properties of CdSe such as quantum confinement, band structure, absorption, and emission mechanism are being discussed to understand its various properties like optical, electrical, thermal, mechanical, and structural in order to analyze factors affecting device performance. This paper also highlights the research work going on in the field of applications of bulk CdSe material and its nanomaterials reported by different authors across the globe.
