Europium Fluoride

Product Detail

Brief information Formula: EuF3 CAS No.: 13765-25-8 Molecular Weight: 208.96 Density: N/A Melting point: N/A Appearance: White crystalline or powder Solubility: Insoluble in water, moderately soluble in strong mineral acids Stability: Slightly hygroscopic Multilingual: EuropiumFluorid, Fluorure De Europium, Fluoruro Del Europium Application: Europium Fluoride is used as a phosphor activator for color cathode-ray tubes and liquid-crystal displays used in computer monitors and televisions employ Europium Oxide as the red phosphor. Several commercial blue phosphors are based on Europium for color TV, computer screens and fluorescent lamps. Europium fluorescence is used to interrogate biomolecular interactions in drug-discovery screens. It is also used in the anti-counterfeiting phosphors in eurobanknotes. A recent (2015) application of Europium is in quantum memory chips which can reliably store information for days at a time; these could allow sensitive quantum data to be stored to a hard disk-like device and shipped around the country.
