Holmium Nitrate Applications
Holmium Nitrate is applied in ceramics, glass, phosphors, metal halide lamps and catalysts. It functions as a colouring agent in cubic zirconia and glass, yielding a yellow or red colour. Consequently, it is employed as a calibration standard for optical spectrophotometers and is commercially available. It is also incorporated in Yttrium-Iron-Garnet (YIG) and Yttrium-Lanthanum Fluoride (YLF) solid state lasers, which are used in microwave devices in various medical and dental facilities.
