Indium trihydride is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula (InH₃). It has been observed in matrix isolation and laser ablation experiments.^[2]^[3] Gas phase stability has been predicted.^[4] The infrared spectrum was obtained in the gas phase by laser ablation of indium in presence of hydrogen gas ^[5] InH₃ is of no practical importance.
