Indium(III) phosphide, polycrystalline lump, 99.99% (metals basis), Thermo Scientific Chemicals

Description

InP is used in high-power and high-frequency electronics because of its superior electron velocity. It also has a direct bandgap, making it useful for optoelectronics devices like laser diodes. It is also used as a substrate for epitaxial indium gallium arsenide based opto-electronic devices.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
