Description

CAS: 12068-90-5 | HgTe | 328.19 g/mol

Mercury cadmium telluride (MCT)is the mostim- portantmaterial currently in use for the manufacture of high performance infrared (IR) detectors. Mercury telluride and mercury telluride-cadmium telluride are semiconductors which have been investigated as intrinsic infrared detecting materials. Complete coverage of the low-loss fiber windows by mercury telluride quantum dot are used in colloidal nanocrystals for telecommunications.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
