Ga0.95Sb0.95Hg0.05Te0.05 is a quaternary III-V semiconductor alloy combining gallium antimonide with small additions of mercury and tellurium, designed to engineer the bandgap and lattice parameters for infrared optoelectronic applications. This material belongs to the mercury-containing narrow-bandgap semiconductor family and is primarily investigated for mid-wave and long-wave infrared detectors and emitters operating at cryogenic to moderate temperatures. The mercury and tellurium dopants reduce the effective bandgap compared to GaSb, making this composition relevant for thermal imaging, military surveillance systems, and scientific instrumentation where sensitivity to longer infrared wavelengths is critical.
