Room temperature photoluminescence is reported from GaInAsSbP pentanary alloys grown by liquid phase epitaxy on GaSb. The epitaxial layers exhibited emission in the midinfrared between 3 and . Investigation of the structural and photoluminescence properties revealed localization effects associated with potential fluctuations in the pentanary alloy arising from compositional modulation.
