Aluminum antimonide/Aluminium antimonide (AlSb) is a semiconductor material of the III-V family containing aluminum and antimony. It has a CAS number [25152-52-7] [1]. The lattice constant is 0.61 nm. The molecular weight is 148.7 g mol-1. The density is 4200 kg m-3. The indirect bandgap is approximately 1.6 eV at 300 K, whereas the direct band gap is 2.22 eV.

Electron mobility is 200 cm².V-1.s-1 and hole mobility is 400 cm².V-1.s-1 at 300 K. Refractive index is 3.3 at 2 µm wavelength. The dielectric constant is 10.9 at micrtowave frequencies.

AlSb can be alloyed with other III-V materials to produce the following ternary materials: AlInSb, AlGaSb and AlAsSb.
