Ho₂Te₃ is a rare-earth telluride ceramic compound combining holmium with tellurium, belonging to the sesquitelluride family of materials. This compound is primarily of research interest for its potential in thermoelectric and optoelectronic applications, where rare-earth tellurides are investigated for solid-state energy conversion and infrared-responsive devices. While not yet established in mainstream industrial production, materials in this family are pursued for niche applications requiring unique combinations of thermal and electrical properties at elevated temperatures.
