CUSTOM TELLURIDE COMPOUND PRODUCTION EXPERTISE


Telluride is an extremely rare element most commonly used in combination with other metals to increase their machinability. It can be difficult to work with as it is heavy, brittle and mildly toxic. With 50+ years of experience working with inorganic chemicals, Materion’s experts are able to manage the challenges posed by tellurides. We can custom-manufacture telluride compounds and other PVD materials to precisely meet customers’ requirements.

TELLURIDES EMPLOYED IN MULTIPLE APPLICATIONS

Largely due to their high melting point and insolubility in water, telluride compounds help make many applications possible where those attributes are an advantage in a range of uses such as:

  • Semiconductor materials
  • Thermoelectric materials
  • Thin film photovoltaics
  • Infrared optical coatings
  • LEDs
  • Laser diodes
  • Solar cells
  • Microwave generators
