Description and Uses

Erbium(III) oxide (Er2O3) is a member of rare-earth sesquioxides. Er2O3 powder has a pink appearance and the crystal structure of the material is generally known to be cubic. Erbium oxide found to be insoluble in water and soluble in mineral acids. Er2O3 provides various excellent properties such as high dielectric constant (≈14), high mechanical strength, high chemical and thermal stability in contact with Si, wide bandgap (~5.4 eV), substantial hardness and high transparency in visible light.

Erbium(III) oxide is used for vacuum deposition electrical, optical and photoluminescenc, gate dielectrics in semi conductor devices, and in Biomedicine.
