Recycling ZnTe, CdTe, and Other Compound Semiconductors by Ambipolar Electrolysis

Recycling ZnTe, CdTe, and Other Compound Semiconductors by Ambipolar Electrolysis

The electrochemical behavior of ZnTe and CdTe compound semiconductors dissolved in molten ZnCl[subscript 2] and equimolar CdCl[subscript 2]–KCl, respectively, was examined. In these melts dissolved Te is present as the divalent telluride anion, Te[superscript 2–], which was found able to be converte...
