What is InP?

Indium phosphide (InP) is a binary semiconductor composed of indium and phosphorus. It is used in high-power and high-frequency electronics due to its superior electron velocity compared to silicon and gallium arsenide. Common applications include high-frequency circuits, lasers, and LEDs, particularly in fiber optic communication systems. InP is also used in the fabrication of high-efficiency solar cells.
