Band gap narrowing (BGN) effect is considered for heavily doped GaAs1_ySby epilayers. Band-gap Eg(GaAsl_ySby)=l.25y2-1.95y+1.519 is obtained through fitting band-gap energy obtained by PL spectra from 35 to 300 K. Fermi level (El) and full width at half maximum (FWHM) of photolumines- cence increase with antimony mole fraction. The increase of Fermi level is attributed to hole mass of GaAsl_ySby decrease which is resulted from antimony composition increase.
