Yb₆Y₂ is a rare-earth ceramic compound belonging to the hexaboride family, composed of ytterbium and yttrium boride phases. This material is primarily of research and experimental interest, studied for its potential in high-temperature applications and as a cathode material in thermionic emission devices due to the electron-emitting properties characteristic of rare-earth hexaborides.
