Calcium tellurate (CaTeO₃) is an inorganic semiconductor compound combining alkaline earth and tellurium oxide chemistry, belonging to the broader family of metal tellurates explored for specialized optoelectronic and photocatalytic applications. This material remains largely in research and development phases rather than established industrial production, with primary interest in photocatalysis, potential UV-visible light absorption applications, and as a component in advanced ceramic systems where tellurium-based semiconductors offer unique bandgap characteristics.
