Cd1 Au1
semiconductor· Cd1 Au1
CdAu is an intermetallic compound combining cadmium and gold in a 1:1 stoichiometric ratio, belonging to the semiconductor intermetallic family. This material is primarily of research interest for its potential in optoelectronic and thermoelectric applications, where the combination of metallic and semiconducting properties can be exploited. CdAu represents an experimental compound within the broader cadmium-gold phase diagram rather than an established commercial material, and researchers investigate it for niche applications where its unique electronic properties and phase stability might outperform conventional semiconductors or binary alloys.
