Tm₂CoRu is an intermetallic compound combining thulium (a rare earth element) with cobalt and ruthenium, classified as a semiconductor. This is a research-phase material studied for its electronic and magnetic properties rather than an established commercial alloy. Intermetallic compounds in this family are investigated for potential applications in thermoelectric devices, magnetic materials, and high-temperature electronics where the unique electronic structure of rare earth–transition metal combinations offers advantages over conventional semiconductors.
