Abstract
Just as the III-V compounds and alloys have competed with Si for market share so InP has continually battled GaAs for the niches where this class of materials has the advantage. In this paper we will review some of the main developments that have occurred as InP has risen to its present status as the major optoelectronic provider in the 1.3 to 1.6 μm market, and as the electronic device material of choice for low noise, high efficiency, high power and radiation tolerant applications at very high frequencies
