· Yb4 Ni4 B16

Yb₄Ni₄B₁₆ is a rare-earth nickel boride intermetallic compound combining ytterbium, nickel, and boron in a defined stoichiometric ratio. This material belongs to the family of rare-earth metal borides and is primarily of research and developmental interest rather than established in high-volume production. The compound is investigated for potential applications in advanced electronics, magnetic materials, and high-temperature structural applications where the combination of rare-earth and transition-metal bonding offers tailored hardness, thermal stability, or electronic properties distinct from conventional alloys.
