Applications of Holmium oxide

Lasers and optoelectronics: Ho₂O₃ powder is a key raw material for the preparation of Ho:YAG laser crystals, and the 2.1-μm wavelength laser output from such lasers is particularly suitable for medical lithotripsy and soft tissue surgery. In addition, in the military field, Ho₂O₃-doped fiber lasers can be used for applications such as infrared countermeasures and laser ranging.

Nuclear energy industry: Due to its extremely high neutron absorption cross section, Ho₂O₃ is widely used as a control rod material for nuclear reactors, which can effectively regulate the chain reaction rate. Meanwhile, in nuclear waste disposal, Ho₂O₃ can also be used as a neutron poison material to help safely store radioactive materials.

Specialty Functional Materials: As a substrate for upconversion luminescent materials, Ho₂O₃ can achieve highly efficient visible light emission when co-doped with Yb³⁺ plasma, which is widely used in anti-counterfeiting markers and bio-imaging. In addition, in the field of magnetic materials, Ho₂O₃ is used in the development of new magnetic refrigeration materials and spintronic devices due to its special 4f electronic configuration.

Quality Control

VI HALBLEITERMATERIAL GmbH  strictly implements a full-process quality control system, adheres to the principle of reworking and redoing defective products, and each batch of products passes a detailed specification test before release. We are committed to building a responsible supply chain by fully complying with REACH and ASTM standards, ensuring batch consistency, and establishing a complete document traceability system.

Packaging and Storage

Holmium Oxide powder is packed in double vacuum bottles and then protected in special cartons to ensure safe transportation.

Ho₂O₃ need to be sealed and stored in a dry environment, avoid contact with moisture, acidic gases, to prevent the material from moisture deterioration.
