Band gap energy is not correctly reported

The current description says that the bandgap is the same for wurtzite and zincblende crystal structures.

But according to the cited reference this is seemingly not true, as there are three different bandgap energies for the 3 valance bands of wurtzite CdSe, none of the values matches the reported 1.74 eV.

I'm uncertain how to modify this part to be reasonably understandable, and I'm also unsure if my understanding of the paper is correct. So it would be great to have someone else's feedback on this. Swedishpancaces (talk) 15:10, 22 May 2025 (UTC)
