ZnAs (zinc arsenide) is a III-V compound semiconductor material composed of zinc and arsenic elements. This material is primarily explored in research contexts for optoelectronic and high-frequency electronic device applications, where its direct bandgap and carrier mobility characteristics make it a candidate for infrared detectors, light-emitting devices, and specialized semiconductor junctions. While less commercially established than GaAs or InP alternatives, ZnAs remains of interest in the semiconductor research community for niche applications requiring specific optical or electrical properties in the mid-infrared spectrum.
