Cu₂H₂O₄ is a copper-based semiconductor compound containing copper, hydrogen, and oxygen in a defined stoichiometric ratio. This material belongs to the family of mixed-valence copper hydroxides or oxyhydroxides and is primarily of research interest rather than established commercial production. The compound is investigated for potential applications in catalysis, electrochemistry, and optoelectronic devices due to copper's variable oxidation states and the structural role of hydroxyl groups in modulating electronic properties.
