Erbium Oxide

Erbium OxideErbium Oxide

Erbium Oxide, also known as Erbia, is a light pink powder in appearance with a cubic crystal structure. Er2O3 is insoluble in water, but soluble in mineral acids. Erbium Oxide readily absorbs moisture and carbon dioxide from the air. We provide high purity Er2O3 with powder, granules, pellets, sputtering targets, and other customized forms.

Applications

-Used as colourant in glasses and porcelain enamel glazes. High purity Er2O3 is widely applied as dopant in making optical fiber and amplifier.

-Used as gate dielectrics in semiconductor devices due to its high dielectric constant and large band gap.

-Er2O3 nano-particles on carbon nano-tubes are used in biomedical applications due to its photoluminescent properties.

It an important colourant in glasses and porcelain enamel glazes. High purity erbium oxide is widely applied as dopant in making optical fiber and amplifier. It is particularly useful as an amplifier for fiber optic data transfer. Er2O3 has a pink color, and is sometimes used as a colorant for glass, cubic zirconia and porcelain. The glass is then often used in sunglasses and cheap jewelry.

Packaging of rare earth oxides

Our rare earth oxides are clearly tagged and labeled externally to ensure efficient identification and quality control. Iron drums and cartons are used. Great care is taken to avoid any damage which might be caused during storage or transportation.
