Tellurium (Te) Micronpowder Main Feature
The photoconductivity of Tellurium micronpowder makes it exceptionally useful in devices that operate on light detection and conversion, enhancing the efficiency of photodetectors, solar cells, and other optoelectronic devices.Tellurium’s ability to convert heat differences directly into electrical energy (and vice versa) is leveraged in thermoelectric applications. Its micronpowder form, with a higher surface area, can potentially offer improved thermoelectric performance, making it suitable for power generation and cooling systems.The micronized form of Tellurium allows for more compact and efficient design configurations in manufacturing processes, particularly in the coating of surfaces or in the fabrication of thin films for electronic components.As a micronpowder, Tellurium can be more evenly distributed when used as an alloying agent with other metals, improving the machinability, durability, and thermal conductivity of the resultant alloys.
Tellurium (Te) Micronpowder Applications
Thermoelectric Devices: Tellurium is a vital component in thermoelectric materials, which convert heat directly into electricity or vice versa. The micron-sized particles can be used to produce high-performance thermoelectric generators and cooling devices, benefiting applications ranging from renewable energy to electronic cooling systems.
Semiconductors and Electronics: Due to its photoconductivity, Tellurium micronpowder is used in the manufacturing of semiconductor devices, including photodetectors, diodes, and infrared detectors. Its ability to improve the electrical properties of semiconductors under light exposure is particularly valuable in optoelectronics.
Alloys and Metallurgy: Tellurium improves the machinability of metals like copper and stainless steel when added as an alloying agent. The micronpowder form ensures a homogeneous distribution of Tellurium in the alloy, enhancing the material’s workability, corrosion resistance, and thermal conductivity.
Glass and Fiber Optics: The addition of Tellurium to glass formulations can change the refractive index and other optical properties, making it useful in fiber optics and other specialty glasses. This application takes advantage of the fine particle size for uniform dispersion within the glass matrix.
