It looks OK to me. What is the problem?Template:Jillball

If you mean why there is a {{cleanup}}, it is there because there is a lot of data in the text, which should be in a chembox (not sure if this box is the proper one). --Dirk Beetstra T C 17:42, 29 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

What is a chembox? I can certainly clean the page up. Template:Jillball

Suggested merger from New theoretical model for CdTe

Somebody has tagged New theoretical model for CdTe for merger to here. I concur. Whether or not it survives here remains to be seen, but put it here first. Gene Nygaard 14:18, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

tellurium

The extreme rarity of tellurium seems like it's worth mentioning in the article. I'm not adding it yet, though. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Scythe33 (talkcontribs) 02:58, 14 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'd really like to discuss tellurium/cadmium telluride with an expert (I work in finance). If you are interested, we'll figure out the best way to swap contact info. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Issender (talkcontribs) 14:49, 29 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Availability of Materials

Here we should discuss where the main sources of CdTe are located. Do we mine this stuff? Is it readily available somehow? What is the cost of the material? What is our current consumption and our current supply? What do we think consumption and supply will look like in the future? —Preceding unsigned comment added by OrganicSolar (talkcontribs) 23:00, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Why was the link name changed back to "Cadmium telluride solar cells" if the article's title is Cadmium telluride photovoltaics?SolarUSA (talk) 14:31, 24 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Production data

This page lacks production data. How do they make it... react cadmium and tellurium... fuse them as an alloy... reduce a tellurite in the presence of cadmium... how?--Chemicalinterest (talk) 14:53, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong density

The density value of 6.2 g/cm³ as given in the current version is wrong. I will change it to the correct value of 5.85, also giving a reference. The correct value can be derived from the lattice constant of 6.48 A, too. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dr. Thomas König (talkcontribs) 13:01, 1 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
