· Ni2 B4 O8

Ni₂B₄O₈ is a nickel borate ceramic compound belonging to the family of mixed-metal borates, which are inorganic semiconductors combining nickel oxide and boric oxide phases. This material is primarily of research and emerging industrial interest, studied for its potential in optical, photocatalytic, and electronic applications where the combination of nickel's redox activity and boron's glass-forming/structural properties creates functional semiconductor behavior. Its selection over conventional semiconductors or borates would depend on specific performance requirements in niche photonic or catalytic applications where the nickel–borate synergy offers advantages.
