Er3InN

Er₃InN is an experimental ternary nitride ceramic composed of erbium, indium, and nitrogen, belonging to the rare-earth nitride family. This compound is primarily of research interest for advanced optoelectronic and semiconductor applications, where rare-earth nitrides are being explored for their potential in high-energy photonics, deep-ultraviolet emitters, and next-generation wide-bandgap device architectures. While not yet commercially established, materials in this class are attractive to researchers developing high-performance ceramics for extreme environments due to their ionic bonding character and potential thermal/mechanical stability.
