InGaAs (Indium Gallium Arsenide)

Indium Gallium Arsenide (InGaAs) is a semiconductor material made by combining indium, gallium, and arsenic. It is valued for its ability to detect and respond to infrared light, which is beyond human sight. InGaAs is commonly used in high-speed optical communications, telescopes, and infrared imaging because it offers excellent sensitivity, fast response times, and good performance across a range of infrared wavelengths. Its properties make it an essential component in technologies requiring precise infrared detection and high-speed data transfer.
