Calcium cobalt oxide (Ca₂Co₁O₃) is a mixed-valence ceramic oxide semiconductor belonging to the perovskite-related family of materials. This compound is primarily investigated in research contexts for thermoelectric and magnetoelectric applications, where its electronic and thermal transport properties are exploited to convert heat to electricity or couple magnetic and electric phenomena. While not yet widely commercialized, materials in this class show promise for waste heat recovery systems and advanced functional devices where conventional semiconductors are insufficient.
