Yb₂O₃ for special ceramics, laser technology and electronics applications

Ytterbium oxide (Yb₂O₃) is a rare earth oxide of high technical relevance. The white to slightly pink powder has a wide range of applications in optical systems, high-performance ceramics and laser technology. PROJECTOR supplies ytterbium oxide in technical and high-purity quality - individually packaged and quickly available for industrial customers in Germany and Western Europe.

Typical applications of ytterbium oxide

In laser technology, ytterbium oxide is used for doping YAG or other laser crystals. Nd:Yb lasers are considered efficient and stable, especially in material processing and medical technology. Ytterbium oxide is also suitable for the production of special ceramics used in high-temperature processes, thermal barrier coatings and ion-conducting materials. In the electronics industry, ytterbium oxide is increasingly being tested as a dielectric or for phosphor-based applications in displays and lighting technology.
