Y1 Mo3 O8

Y1Mo3O8 is a mixed-valence oxide semiconductor compound combining yttrium and molybdenum, belonging to the class of transition metal oxides with potential electrochemical and photocatalytic properties. This material is primarily of research interest rather than established industrial production, with potential applications in energy conversion devices, catalysis, and solid-state electronics where its semiconductor behavior and mixed oxidation states could be leveraged. The compound represents the broader family of Magnéli-phase and Wadsley-defect oxides that are explored for high-temperature stability and redox activity.
