Ho1 Bi2 I1 O4
semiconductor· Ho1 Bi2 I1 O4
Ho₁Bi₂I₁O₄ is a mixed rare-earth bismuth iodide oxide semiconductor, representing an emerging class of halide perovskite and perovskite-derivative materials. This is primarily a research-phase compound studied for its potential in optoelectronic and photovoltaic applications, where the combination of holmium and bismuth offers tunable band gaps and potential for enhanced light absorption compared to single-cation systems. The material belongs to the broader family of layered halide compounds being explored as alternatives to lead-based perovskites, with potential advantages in thermal stability and reduced toxicity, though industrial-scale synthesis and deployment remain under development.
