<p>A stabilized cadmium chalcogenide, in which optionally zinc and/or mercury is present in the lattice, carrying at least one coating of a sparingly-soluble sulfide is produced by adding at least one water-soluble salt of an element forming a sparingly-soluble sulfide to an aqueous chalcogenide suspension, mixing with a compound releasing sulfide ions and/or mixing the cadmium chalcogenide suspension with a soluble thio-compound of an element forming a sparingly-soluble sulfide thereby to precipitate a sparingly-soluble sulfide onto the chalcogenide, subsequently filtering, optionally washing, drying and annealing the aftertreated chalcogenide. Suitable sparingly-soluble sulfides are, for example, the sulfides of the elements Zn, Hg, In, Sn, Pb, As, Sb, Bi, V, Mo, W, Cu and Ag.</p> |
