CeNiGe

CeNiGe is an intermetallic compound composed of cerium, nickel, and germanium, belonging to the class of rare-earth metal intermetallics. This material is primarily of research and exploratory interest rather than established industrial production, with investigations focusing on its electronic, magnetic, and thermal properties as part of broader studies into cerium-based compounds for potential functional applications. The material represents the type of exotic intermetallic that researchers evaluate for specialized roles in advanced electronics, thermoelectric devices, or magnetic applications where the combination of rare-earth and transition-metal components may offer unique property combinations not achievable in more conventional alloys.
