These Ternary Compounds can be derived from binary compounds HgTe and ZnTe by replacing one half of the atoms in one sub lattice by lower valence atoms, the other half by higher valence atoms and maintaining average number of valence electrons per atom. The subscript X refers to the alloy content or concentration of the material, which describes proportion of the material added and replaced by alloy material. This paper represents the HgxZn1-xSe II-VI Ternary Semiconductor Band Energy Gap values Keywords: Band Energy Gap, Composition, Electro Negativity, Molecular weight, density, optical Polarizability, II-VI Ternary Semiconductors. Introduction: 1) In this opening talk of HgxZn1-xSe II-VI Ternary Semiconductor Band Energy Gap Electronegativity values of Ternary Semiconductors are denoted by symbols XM and XN and Band Energy Gap is denoted by Eg 2) Linus Pauling first proposed Electro Negativity in 1932 as a development of valence bond theory,[2] it has been shown to correlate with a number of other chemical properties. 3) The continuous variation of physical properties like Electro Negativity of ternary compounds with relative concentration of constituents is of utmost utility in development of solid-state technology. 4) In the present work, the solid solutions belonging to HgxZn1-xSe II-VI Ternary Semiconductor Band Energy Gap have been investigated. In order to have better understanding of performance of these solid solutions for any particular application, it becomes quite necessary to work on the physical properties like Electro Negativity of these materials. 5) Recently no other class of material of semiconductors has attracted so much scientific and commercial attention like the II-VI Ternary compounds. 6) Doping of Hg component in a Binary semiconductor like ZnSe and changing the composition of do pant has actually resulted in lowering of Band Energy Gap. 7) Thus effect of do pant increases the conductivity and decreases the Band Energy Gap and finds extensive applications 8) The present investigation relates Band Energy Gap and Electro Negativity with variation of composition for HgxZn1-xSe II-VI Ternary Semiconductor. 9) The fair agreement between calculated and reported values of Band Energy Gaps of HgSe and ZnSe Binary semiconductors give further extension of Band Energy Gaps for Ternary semiconductors. 10) The present work opens new line of approach to Band Energy Gap studies in HgxZn1-xSe II-VI Ternary Semiconductor Objective: The main Objective of this paper is to calculate HgxZn1-xSe II-VI Ternary Semiconductor Band Energy Gap values Purpose: The purpose of study is HgxZn1-xSe II-VI Ternary Semiconductor Band Energy Gap and effect of concentration in Electro Negativity values of II-VI Ternary Semiconductors to represent additivity principle even in very low concentration range.
