Li₃Au is an intermetallic compound combining lithium and gold, representing a research-phase material rather than an established industrial standard. This compound belongs to the family of lithium-based intermetallics, which are primarily of scientific and exploratory interest due to their unusual combinations of low-density lightweight metals with noble metal properties. While not yet deployed in mainstream engineering applications, lithium-gold systems are investigated for potential use in specialized electrochemical systems, energy storage research, and fundamental studies of metallic phase behavior.
