GeAs (germanium arsenide) is a III-V compound semiconductor formed from germanium and arsenic, belonging to the family of binary semiconductors used in optoelectronic and high-frequency electronic applications. While less common than GaAs or InP in commercial production, GeAs is primarily of research and developmental interest for its potential in infrared detectors, thermal imaging systems, and high-speed transistor applications where its band structure and carrier transport properties may offer advantages. The material represents an alternative within the III-V semiconductor family where composition engineering enables tuning of electronic and optical properties for specialized device applications.
