PdSeS
PdSeS is a semiconducting ternary compound containing palladium, selenium, and sulfur that is considered a viable candidate for experimental synthesis.

About PdSeS
PdSeS is a ternary palladium chalcogenide that exhibits semiconducting electronic behavior. Its composition balances sulfur and selenium within a palladium-based framework, positioning it as a material of interest for specialized electronic and optoelectronic research.
As a near-hull compound, PdSeS is considered thermodynamically accessible and likely synthesizable under controlled conditions. Its structural diversity, evidenced by multiple reported configurations, suggests a flexible lattice capable of accommodating different atomic arrangements.
Key Properties
Cross-validated computational properties for PdSeS, aggregated across 3 databases.
Band GapEnergy needed to move an electron from the valence band to the conduction band. Lower or zero values tend to behave more metallic; larger gaps are more insulating or semiconducting.
Energy Above HullThermodynamic distance from the most stable set of competing phases. 0 eV/atom is on the convex hull; small positive values may still be experimentally accessible.
StabilityA plain-language summary of the best reported energy-above-hull result. It reflects whether the lowest-energy structure is on, near, or far from the stability hull.
