In₂Pb₂Cl₆ is a mixed-metal halide semiconductor compound combining indium and lead chlorides, belonging to the family of layered perovskite and non-perovskite halide semiconductors. This is primarily a research-stage material investigated for optoelectronic applications, particularly in photovoltaics and light-emitting devices, where its tunable bandgap and potential for solution processing offer advantages over conventional semiconductors. The material is notable within the halide perovskite research community because lead-tin or lead-indium combinations can provide improved stability or reduced toxicity compared to pure lead halides, though commercialization remains limited.
