BERYLLIUM SULFIDE Usage And Synthesis
Uses
Due to their large energy gap and hardness, beryllium sulfides and selenides are interesting materials for improving the lifetime of optical devices made of other II-VI-semiconductors by forming multicombinatory alloys, notably with ZnS or CdS.
Preparation
Beryllium sulfide can
be prepared by the direct reaction of the elements,
calcined in an inert atmosphere, at a 1.0:1.05 molecular
ratio:
Be+ S+ heat→BeS
Beryllium does not form a polysulfide.
