BiTeIr is an intermetallic ceramic compound combining bismuth, tellurium, and iridium—a research-phase material within the family of heavy-element ceramics and intermetallics. This compound is primarily explored in materials science for high-temperature applications and thermoelectric device research, where its combination of metallic and ceramic characteristics may offer advantages in extreme thermal environments or energy conversion systems. BiTeIr remains largely experimental; engineers would evaluate it where conventional ceramics prove insufficient for combined mechanical rigidity and thermal management demands, though industrial adoption is currently limited.
