説明
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.

化学的特性
Pink powder that readily absorbs moisture and carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. infusible. Insoluble in water; slightly soluble in mineral acids.
Erbium(III) oxide (Er2O3), a pink solid, is a compound of erbium sometimes used as a colouring for glasses and a dopant for optical fibres and optical amplifiers. It was partially isolated by Carl Gustaf Mosander in 1843, and first obtained in pure form in 1905 by Georges Urbain and Charles James.
