· JVASP-28445· LuTe3

LuTe3 is a rare-earth telluride ceramic compound composed of lutetium and tellurium, belonging to the family of lanthanide chalcogenides. This material is primarily of research interest rather than established in commercial production, with potential applications in thermoelectric devices, solid-state electronics, and quantum materials where layered crystal structures and tunable electronic properties are advantageous. The relatively weak interlayer bonding characteristic of such telluride compounds makes LuTe3 a candidate for exfoliation into two-dimensional nanosheets, opening exploratory pathways in nanoelectronics and optoelectronics.
