Calcium cerium nitride (CaCeN₂) is an inorganic ceramic compound belonging to the family of rare-earth-containing nitride ceramics. This material is primarily of research and development interest rather than established commercial production, being investigated for its potential hardness, thermal stability, and electronic properties in advanced ceramic applications. The incorporation of cerium, a lanthanide element, into the nitride structure offers potential advantages in wear resistance, refractory performance, and specialized optical or electronic functions compared to simpler binary nitride ceramics.
