Indium antimonide
Indium antimonide
(
InSb
) is a crystalline
compound
made from the
element
s
indium
(In) and
antimony
(Sb). It is a narrow-
gap
semiconductor
material from the
III
-
V
group used in
infrared detectors
, including
thermal imaging
cameras,
FLIR
systems,
infrared homing
missile guidance
systems, and in
infrared astronomy
. The indium antimonide detectors are sensitive between 1–5 µm wavelengths. Indium antimonide was a very common detector in the old, single-detector mechanically scanned thermal imaging systems. Another application is as a
terahertz radiation
source as it is a strong
photo-Dember
emitter.
