Ba₂ZnF₆ is an inorganic ceramic compound belonging to the fluoride ceramic family, composed of barium, zinc, and fluorine elements. This material is primarily of research interest for optical and electrolytic applications, particularly in solid-state ionics and as a potential fluoride ion conductor for advanced battery and fuel cell systems. Ba₂ZnF₆ and related barium zinc fluorides are investigated as alternatives to more common fluoride conductors due to their ionic transport properties and thermal stability, making them candidates for next-generation solid electrolytes where fluoride mobility is advantageous.
