Caesium cadmium bromide (CsCdBr3) is a synthetic crystalline material. It belongs to the AMX3 group (where A=alkali metal, M=bivalent metal, X=halogen ions). As a single crystal structure doped with rare earth ions, it can be used as active laser medium.[3] However, its hygroscopic behaviour limits its use as a laser crystal.
