Zn4 Ho2

Zn₄Ho₂ is an intermetallic compound composed of zinc and holmium (a rare-earth element), belonging to the semiconductor material class. This is a research-phase compound rather than an established engineering material, likely studied for its electronic and magnetic properties arising from the rare-earth constituent. Interest in such zinc-rare-earth intermetallics typically centers on potential applications in thermoelectric devices, magnetic refrigeration, or specialized electronic components where rare-earth contributions to band structure and magnetic ordering are exploited.
