Li₁Nb₁Ir₂ is an experimental ternary intermetallic compound combining lithium, niobium, and iridium. This research-phase material belongs to the family of high-entropy and refractory intermetallics, which are being investigated for extreme-environment applications requiring both mechanical strength and thermal stability. While not yet commercialized, compounds in this material class show promise for next-generation aerospace, high-temperature electronics, and energy storage systems where conventional alloys reach performance limits.
