Tellurium is a chemical element; it has symbol Te and atomic number 52. It is a brittle, mildly toxic, rare, silver-white metalloid. Tellurium is chemically related to selenium and sulfur, all three of which are chalcogens. It is occasionally found in its native form as elemental crystals.
There are 39 known isotopes and 17 nuclear isomers of tellurium (52 Te), with atomic masses that range from 104 to 142. These are listed in the table below. Naturally-occurring tellurium on Earth consists of eight isotopes. Two of these have been found to be radioactive: 128 Te and 130 Te undergo double beta decay with half-lives of, respectively, 2.2×10 24 (2.2 septillion) years (the longest ...
Historically the name tellurate was only applied to oxyanions of tellurium with oxidation number +6, formally derived from telluric acid Te(OH) 6, and the name tellurite referred to oxyanions of tellurium with oxidation number +4, formally derived from tellurous acid (HO) 2 TeO and these names are in common use.
However, tellurium is a relatively rare element (1–5 parts per billion in the Earth's crust; see Abundances of the elements (data page)). Through improved material efficiency and increased PV recycling systems, the CdTe PV industry has the potential to fully rely on tellurium from recycled end-of-life modules by 2038. [ 17 ]
It is prepared by heating tellurium with the appropriate stoichiometry of bromine near 215 °C. The corresponding chloride and iodide, Te 2 Cl and Te 2 I, are also known. [3] Other tellurium bromides include the yellow liquid Te 2 Br 2, the orange solid TeBr 4, [4] and the greenish-black solid TeBr 2. [5]
Tellurite is a rare oxide mineral composed of tellurium dioxide (Te O 2).. It occurs as prismatic to acicular transparent yellow to white orthorhombic crystals. It occurs in the oxidation zone of mineral deposits in association with native tellurium, emmonsite and other tellurium minerals.
Lead telluride is a compound of lead and tellurium (PbTe). It crystallizes in the NaCl crystal structure with Pb atoms occupying the cation and Te forming the anionic lattice. It is a narrow gap semiconductor with a band gap of 0.32 eV. [4] It occurs naturally as the mineral altaite.
