InCoSi₂ is an intermetallic compound combining indium, cobalt, and silicon, belonging to the family of ternary metal silicides. This material is primarily of research interest for high-temperature structural applications and thermoelectric device development, where its refractory nature and electronic properties offer potential advantages over conventional binary silicides, though industrial adoption remains limited pending further optimization of processing and manufacturing scalability.
