Ca4 Sb4 O10

Ca₄Sb₄O₁₀ is an inorganic ceramic compound belonging to the antimony oxide family, synthesized as a crystalline semiconductor material. This is a research-phase compound investigated primarily for optoelectronic and photocatalytic applications due to its semiconducting band gap characteristics and structural stability. The material represents exploration within mixed-metal oxide systems, where layered or framework structures of calcium and antimony oxides show potential for light-driven catalysis, sensing, or energy conversion—areas where conventional semiconductors like silicon or gallium arsenide may be less cost-effective or have unsuitable chemical properties.
