CdSb₃ is an intermetallic ceramic compound composed of cadmium and antimony, belonging to the rare-earth-free ceramic family with potential thermoelectric and semiconductor properties. This material is primarily investigated in research contexts for thermoelectric energy conversion applications and as a semiconductor material, where its crystal structure and electronic properties make it a candidate for waste heat recovery systems and specialized electronic devices. CdSb₃ represents an alternative to lead-based and rare-earth-containing thermoelectrics, though it remains largely experimental with limited commercial-scale deployment compared to more established compounds like bismuth telluride.
