Si₁Mo₁ is an experimental intermetallic compound combining silicon and molybdenum in equimolar proportions, belonging to the refractory metal silicide family. This material is primarily of research interest for high-temperature structural applications and electronic devices, where the combination of molybdenum's refractory properties and silicon's semiconductor characteristics may offer advantages in extreme environments, though commercial deployment remains limited compared to established alternatives like MoSi₂ or pure molybdenum alloys.
