In₄Hg₂O₈ is an inorganic oxide semiconductor compound containing indium, mercury, and oxygen. This material belongs to the family of mixed-metal oxides and is primarily of research interest rather than established industrial production. The compound is investigated for potential optoelectronic and semiconductor device applications, though it remains largely experimental; its mercury content and relative scarcity limit widespread adoption compared to more conventional oxide semiconductors like indium tin oxide (ITO) or gallium arsenide.
