Efficient up-conversion in CdSe

Thermodynamic analysis of the sublimation process in cadmium selenide

“…Due to its relatively wide transparency range, large nonlinear optical coefficients, low optical losses [4] and appropriate birefringence [2,5], CdSe crystal is a promising candidate for application in opto-electronic devices and laser diodes [6][7][8][9] and CdSe film is used being tested for use in high-efficiency solar cells. Furthermore, CdSe nanocrystal is also a promising material for use in a variety of nanotechnology applications.…”

Optimizing the growth procedures for CdSe crystal by thermal analysis techniques

“…At normal temperature and pressure, it crystallizes in a hexagonal close packed wurtzite structure [4] and belongs to the P6 3 mc (C 4 6V ) space group [5]. The CdSe single crystal has captured significant interest due to its high potential for room temperature nuclear radiation detectors [6,7] and nonlinear optical devices [8][9][10][11][12][13]. Many methods, such as the temperature gradient solution zoning technique (TGSZ) [14], chemical vapor transport method (CVTM) [15], solution growth [16], melt-growth [17] and solid-state re-crystallization (SSR) [18], etc., have been used for CdSe single crystal growth.…”
