Au6 Er6 Sb8

Au₆Er₆Sb₈ is an intermetallic compound combining gold, erbium, and antimony, belonging to the rare-earth intermetallic family. This is a research-phase material with potential applications in thermoelectric devices and advanced electronic materials, where the combination of noble metal (Au), rare-earth element (Er), and semimetal (Sb) may enable tunable electronic and thermal transport properties. The compound represents exploration into ternary intermetallic systems for next-generation semiconducting or semimetallic applications where conventional binary compounds fall short.
