Indium Phosphide (InP) is an important III-V compound and semiconductor material with the advantages of high electron mobility, good radiation stability, and large band gap. It has a face-centered cubic ("zincblende") crystal structure, identical to that of GaAs and most of the III-V semiconductors. InP is used as a substrate for epitaxial indium gallium arsenide-based optoelectronic devices. With stable physical and chemical properties, InP finds versatile usages in optical fiber communication, microwave, millimeter wave (MMV), radiation-resistant solar cells, and other fields.
Indium Phosphide (InP) is also utilized in high-power and high-frequency electronics (High-electron-mobility transistor, Heterojunction bipolar transistor) because of its superior electron velocities. It was used with indium gallium arsenide to make record-breaking pseudomorphic heterojunction bipolar transistors that could operate at 604 GHz.
