Description:
Erbium is one of the rare earth elements among Lanthanide series. Pure Erbium metal is malleable, soft, and fairly stable in air. Erbium ions fluoresce pink light and are used in imaging and optical applications. Erbium oxidizes slower than some other rare-earth metals and has a high electrical resistivity. It is typically found in small quantities and in combination with other rare earths. As a pure metal, Erbium has limited applications, however, it can be used as an alloying element with titanium.
High-purity evaporation materials play a huge role in deposition processes to ensure high-quality deposited film. Stanford Advanced Materials (SAM) specializes in producing up to 99.9% purity erbium evaporation materials using quality assurance processes to guarantee product reliability.
