· Ho2 Mo2 Cl2 O8

Ho₂Mo₂Cl₂O₈ is a mixed-metal oxychloride compound combining holmium and molybdenum, belonging to the broader class of transition-metal halide-oxide semiconductors. This is primarily a research-phase material studied for its electronic and photocatalytic properties rather than an established commercial semiconductor. The compound represents an emerging class of materials investigated for potential applications in photocatalysis, electronic devices, and sensing where the combination of rare-earth (Ho) and early transition-metal (Mo) centers may enable tunable band structure and enhanced light absorption.
