YAsO₂F is a rare-earth arsenate fluoride ceramic compound containing yttrium, arsenic, oxygen, and fluorine. This is a research-phase functional ceramic material studied primarily in the optical and photonic materials community for potential applications in laser hosts and scintillator materials. The mixed anion system (arsenate + fluoride) offers designers tunable optical properties and thermal stability, making it of interest as an alternative to more conventional rare-earth phosphate or silicate hosts, though industrial adoption remains limited.
