HoErMg₂ is a rare-earth magnesium intermetallic ceramic compound containing holmium and erbium as primary alloying elements. This material represents an experimental composition within the rare-earth magnesium family, investigated primarily for high-temperature structural applications and potentially for functional properties exploiting rare-earth magnetic or optical characteristics. The specific combination of heavy rare earths (Ho, Er) with magnesium is relatively uncommon and suggests research focus on enhancing thermal stability, oxidation resistance, or specialized physical properties beyond conventional Mg alloys.
