General Description

Dicesium telluride, also known as Cs2Te, is a chemical compound composed of two cesium atoms and one tellurium atom. It is a binary ionic compound with a crystal structure that exhibits semiconducting properties. Dicesium telluride is commonly used in the production of infrared sensors, photodetectors, and thermoelectric devices due to its unique combination of electrical and optical properties. It is also a key component in the development of solar cells and other photovoltaic technologies. Additionally, dicesium telluride has potential applications in the field of quantum computing and as a catalyst for various chemical reactions. However, it is important to note that dicesium telluride is highly reactive and must be handled with caution due to its sensitivity to air and moisture.
