Calcium vanadium oxide (Ca₁V₄O₁₀) is an inorganic ceramic compound belonging to the vanadium oxide family, typically investigated as a semiconductor material for electronic and photocatalytic applications. This compound exists primarily in research contexts, where it is explored for potential use in photovoltaic devices, catalytic converters, and gas-sensing applications due to vanadium oxide's mixed-valence electronic structure. Compared to pure vanadium oxides, calcium-doped variants offer tunable bandgap and enhanced catalytic activity, making them candidates for environmental remediation and energy conversion, though industrial adoption remains limited.
