Description and Uses

Europium oxide is now widely used as a phosphor activator, and europium activated yttrium vanadate is in commercial use as the red phosphor in color TV tubes. Europium oxide nanopowder acts as phosphors for lamps. It is used as a fluorescent label in immunoassay for atrazine. It is also used in color TV, X-ray, glass, crystal and other luminescent materials.
