· HoSb2

HoSb2 is an intermetallic ceramic compound composed of holmium and antimony, belonging to the rare-earth antimony family of materials. This is a research-phase compound primarily investigated for its electronic and thermal properties in solid-state physics applications. The material's notable characteristics in the rare-earth intermetallic family make it of interest for thermoelectric devices, magnetic applications, and fundamental studies of electronic structure in heavy-fermion systems, though industrial adoption remains limited compared to more established ceramic alternatives.
