Ge0.1Pb0.9Se0.9S0.1 is a quaternary chalcogenide semiconductor alloy combining lead selenide and lead sulfide with germanium and sulfur doping. This material belongs to the narrow-bandgap semiconductor family and is primarily investigated for infrared detection and thermal imaging applications, where its composition is engineered to achieve specific wavelength sensitivity in the mid- to long-wave infrared spectrum. The lead selenide-sulfide system is well-established for IR detectors, and the germanium-sulfur modifications enable tuning of optical and thermal properties for specialized sensing applications.
