Gallium antimonide (GaSb) is a semiconducting compound of gallium and antimony of the III-V family. The melting point of a solid is the temperature range at which it changes state from solid to Liquid. Solubility is the characteristic Physical property referring to the ability of a given substance the Solute, to dissolve in a Solvent. Water is a common Chemical substance that is essential for the survival of all known forms of Life. In Chemistry, the standard state of a material is its state at 1 bar (100 Kilopascals exactly A semiconductor' is a Solid material that has Electrical conductivity in between a conductor and an insulator; it can vary over that Gallium (ˈgæliəm is a Chemical element that has the symbol Ga and Atomic number 31 Antimony (IPA (Received Pronunciation, /ˈæntɪmoʊni/ (US is a Chemical element with the symbol Sb (stibium meaning "mark" and It has a lattice constant of about 0.

GaSb can be used for Infrared detectors, infrared LEDs and lasers and transistors. An infrared detector is a Photodetector that reacts to Infrared (IR Radiation. Infrared ( IR) radiation is Electromagnetic radiation whose Wavelength is longer than that of Visible light, but shorter than that of A laser diode is a Laser where the active medium is a Semiconductor similar to that found in a Light-emitting diode. In Electronics, a transistor is a Semiconductor device commonly used to amplify or switch electronic signals
