AgGaSe₂ is a ternary semiconductor compound belonging to the I–III–VI₂ family, combining silver, gallium, and selenium in a chalcopyrite crystal structure. It is primarily investigated for infrared (IR) optoelectronic applications, particularly as a nonlinear optical material and IR detector, and has been explored in mid-to-far infrared imaging systems where its wide bandgap and nonlinear properties offer advantages over traditional germanium or lead-chalcogenide alternatives for specialized wavelength ranges.
