Nd₁Zn₁Au₂ is an intermetallic compound combining neodymium, zinc, and gold in a fixed stoichiometric ratio. This is a research-phase material explored for its potential electronic and magnetic properties arising from rare-earth neodymium, rather than an established industrial alloy. The compound belongs to the family of ternary rare-earth intermetallics, which are investigated for specialized applications in magnetism, thermoelectrics, and advanced electronics where the combination of rare-earth elements with noble metals can yield unusual electronic band structures.
