The name is synonymous with the world’s greatest CO2 laser optics and infrared optical materials. But what, exactly, does the name mean? The Roman numerals “II-VI” refer to Column II and Column VI of the Periodic Table of Elements. By chemically combining elements from Column II and Column VI, we produce the infrared optical crystalline compounds zinc selenide, zinc sulfide, and zinc sulfide MultiSpectral. These compounds, and others created from Column II and Column VI...

Initially starting with cadmium telluride, II-VI gravitated to producing zinc selenide and zinc sulfide during the 1980s. II-VI produces zinc selenide and zinc sulfide by using a process called chemical vapor deposition (CVD). In specially designed furnaces, zinc vapors are reacted with hydrogen selenide or hydrogen sulfide gas to produce zinc selenide or zinc sulfide, respectively. The reaction...
