· Zn1 Au1

ZnAu is an intermetallic compound combining zinc and gold in a 1:1 stoichiometric ratio, classified as a semiconductor material. This compound is primarily of research interest rather than established industrial production, investigated for potential applications in thermoelectric devices, photovoltaics, and specialized electronic components where the unique electronic properties of the gold-zinc system may offer advantages. The intermetallic nature provides distinct electronic band structure compared to conventional semiconductors, making it notable for exploratory work in energy conversion and quantum devices, though practical adoption remains limited and material processing routes are not yet standardized in industry.

Export Control

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
