Zinc (Zn)
- Description
Description
Zinc is a white-silver metal that is most commonly found in the automotive, construction, and medical industries.
High pure Zinc is used for making compound semiconductors such as CdZnTe for detectors, radiation detectors, photorefractive gratings, Electro-optic modulators, Infrared lasers, and solar cells; and ZnSe for blue light emitting diodes, ZnTe for thermo-electric cooling devices. It is also used for molecular bean epitaxial applications in semiconductor researches and productions.
