Ga0.95Hg0.05Sb0.95Te0.05 is a narrow-bandgap III-V semiconductor alloy based on gallium antimonide (GaSb) with mercury and tellurium additions, designed to operate in the infrared spectral region. This ternary/quaternary compound is primarily of research and specialized commercial interest for infrared detection and thermal imaging applications where tuned bandgap engineering enables response in specific wavelength windows. The mercury and tellurium dopants modify the electronic structure relative to binary GaSb, making this alloy relevant for applications requiring sensitivity in the mid-wave or long-wave infrared bands where traditional silicon detectors are insensitive.
