American Elements Begins Bulk Cadmium Telluride Production to Meet Demand From Solar Energy And Lighting Industries



Los Angeles-based American Elements announced the further expansion of its cadmium telluride production facilities to meet growing demand for the semiconductor material in solar energy panels and as quantum dots in liquid emitting diode (LED) lighting.

At full capacity, the new facility can deliver over 150 metric tons annually. The new production capability will affect deliveries beginning immediately and small quantities for testing and qualification are now available.

This will also expand American Elements' production of several other semiconductor telluride and selenide compounds and crystal materials, such as cadmium selenide and zinc telluride, and thin film coating materials for use in solar energy applications.
