Cadmium sulfide
Powder
Cadmium sulfide (CdS) exists in the form of the minerals greenockite and howlite, which occur as yellow deposits on sphalerite (ZnS) and smithsonite. Greenockite has a hexagonal wurtzite structure. It has a yellowish color with a specific gravity of 4.7 g/cm³ and a Mohs hardness of 3.8. Howlite has a cubic sphalerite (zinc hoax) structure.
CADMIUM SULFIDE is used in the production of solar panels in thin-film technology as an n-type conductive layer, as well as a component of optical crystal growth for detector applications, etc.
