Terahertz (THz) wave generation and detection from a (110)-oriented CdTe crystal via optical rectification and electro-optic sampling has been performed with laser wavelengths ranging from 710 to 970 nm. Three optical rectification regimes are studied with various excitation wavelengths: a resonance-enhanced regime above the bandgap, a highly phase-mismatched regime near the band gap, and a semi-phase-matched regime. A CdTe crystal generates more THz power than a ZnTe crystal at 970 nm.

CdMnTe (CMT) is a promising magneto-optical (MO) material for the visible to near-infrared region with a tunable bandgap via manganese (Mn) doping. Although CMT has been extensively studied, the solid solubility limit of Mn in CdTe (cadmium telluride) remains unclear, and the growth of high-Mn-content single crystals has not yet been reported in detail. In this work, the Mn solubility limit in CdTe was determined to be = 0.

CdTe QD-doped MIP-based TLC combined with a miniaturized fluorimeter system (namely the system) was developed to simultaneously detect malachite green (4-[(4-(dimethylamino)phenyl)(phenyl)methyl]-N,N-dimethylbenzenaminium chloride, MG) and crystal violet (4-(Bis{4-(dimethylamino)phenyl}methylidene)-N,N-dimethylcyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-iminium chloride, CV). The system integrated CdTe quantum dots-based molecularly imprinted polymers nanoparticles (CdTe-MIP/SiO NPs) with thin layer chromatography (TLC) plates. Firstly, CdTe-MIP/SiO NPs were synthesized by forming an imprinted layer on silica nanoparticle surfaces through a simple one-pot reaction.

We report measurements of sensitivity of a broadband (≃20-30 keV) x-ray crystal spectrometer using a bremsstrahlung continuum x-ray source and several detectors, including an energy-discriminating photon-counting point detector (Si drift diode, Amptek Inc.), imaging hybrid photon-counting detectors (Eiger2-Si and Eiger2-CdTe, DECTRIS Ltd.), and image plates (SR type).

Herein, silver-doped cadmium telluride quantum dots (Ag-CdTe QDs) as electrochemiluminescence (ECL) emitter with intense ECL signal and hairpin-fueled entropy-driven reactions (H-EDR) as signal amplifier with high conversion efficiency and low signal leakage were exploited to construct an ECL biosensor for ultrasensitive determination of microRNA 222 (miRNA-222) related to liver cancer. Interestingly, the ECL intensity of Ag-CdTe QDs has been improved by 2.5 times compared to that of undoped CdTe QDs for improving the detection sensitivity, which attributed to the crystal shape transformation of Ag-CdTe QDs through silver doping for the reduction of band gap to change the electron-hole recombination path.

In this work, we demonstrate an Au-disk array on a cadmium telluride (CdTe) nanofilm, which generates a local electric field on the surface, enhancing harmonic generation. Compared to a bare CdTe nanofilm, the structured sample exhibits a harmonic strength enhancement of ∼50 times, and the harmonic cutoff order extends from the 23rd to the 32nd.
