· Ga1As0.5P0.5

Ga₁As₀.₅P₀.₅ is a direct-bandgap III-V semiconductor alloy combining gallium arsenide and gallium phosphide in equal proportions, belonging to the family of ternary compound semiconductors used in optoelectronic devices. This material is primarily employed in light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and laser diodes across the visible to near-infrared spectrum, where its tunable bandgap energy allows engineers to optimize emission wavelength for specific applications. GaAsP is notable for offering a compromise between the direct bandgap efficiency of GaAs and the wider bandgap of GaP, making it particularly valuable for red and orange LEDs and in research contexts for integrated photonic circuits.

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
