Selenium is a non-metal chemical element that is part of the chalcogen group on the periodic table, which also includes oxygen, sulfur, tellurium, and polonium. It carries the atomic number 34 and is represented by the symbol Se. Physically, selenium exhibits several allotropic forms, the most stable of which are a gray, metallic-looking form and a red form. The gray form has a structure similar to that of crystalline sulfur, while the red form consists of small, amorphous powdery particles. Chemically, selenium is known for its photoconductive and photovoltaic properties, which enable it to convert light energy into electrical energy, making it a component in several technological applications such as photocopier components and solar cells. Moreover, selenium is capable of combining with a variety of other elements, forming compounds with hydrogen, metals, or nonmetals.
