Product Description:
Ytterbium is primarily used in materials for stress gauges, where its electrical resistance changes under mechanical stress, allowing precise measurement in industrial and scientific equipment. It serves as a doping agent in optical fibers and lasers, enhancing performance in telecommunications and medical laser systems. Ytterbium-doped fiber lasers are valued for high efficiency and beam quality in cutting, welding, and engraving applications. In research, it is used in atomic clocks due to its stable electronic transitions, contributing to advancements in precision timekeeping. It also finds use in nuclear medicine as a radiation source for portable X-ray devices. Additionally, ytterbium compounds are explored in thin-film technology for specialized coatings and in catalysis for organic synthesis.
