Gallium Phosphide(GaP) has an energy band gap (EG) that can emit visible light, but it is an indirect gap semiconductor. It is combined with GaAs to produce GaAs1-xPx alloy which is both direct and has a light producing energy band gap (EG) for a 0.28 ≤ x ≤ 0.45 GaP is also used in manufacturing light-emitting diodes (LEDs). It can emit green light. InP wafers are attracting much attention as a key component in optical fiber communications equipment. Specifically, the semi-insulating InP mirror wafer is expected to become the mainstream material for photodiodes used in a high-speed communications system with a transmission speed of 40 Gbps or higher. Demand for InP is also expected to grow for use in the next-generation mobile phones, which require communications with higher speed and larger capacity.
