The cathodoluminescence and optoelectronic properties based on an individual CdS/CdSe/CdS biaxial nanobelt are revealed in the present study. Both typical CdS and CdSe emissions are detected from as-grown CdS/CdSe/CdS nanobelts. The photodetector based on this nanobelt exhibits high sensitivity and excellent cycle stability. This opens a door to rational design of germanium chalcogenide compounds with unique optical properties.
