Uses
Samarium Acetate has specialized uses in glass, phosphors, lasers, and thermoelectric devices. Calcium chloride crystals treated with Samarium have been employed in lasers which produce beams of light intense enough to burn metal or bounce off the moon. Another important application of Samarium and its compounds is as catalyst and chemical reagent. These magnets are found in small motors, headphones, and high-end magnetic pickups for guitars and related musical instruments.
