In0.4Ga0.6As0.6P0.4 is a quaternary III-V semiconductor alloy combining indium, gallium, arsenic, and phosphorus in a lattice-matched configuration designed for optoelectronic devices. This material is primarily used in infrared light-emitting diodes (LEDs), laser diodes, and photodetectors operating in the 0.9–1.7 μm wavelength range, making it valuable for fiber-optic communications and remote sensing applications. The quaternary composition enables bandgap engineering and lattice matching to indium phosphide (InP) substrates, offering superior performance compared to binary or ternary alternatives for mid-infrared and near-infrared applications where precise wavelength control and high efficiency are critical.
