Nano Holmium Oxide Description
Nano-Holmium Oxide Powder exhibits measurable optical absorption peaks in the visible and near infrared ranges. These peaks appear at defined wavelengths, thereby permitting its use as a calibration standard for optical spectrophotometers and in the development of new optical fibres and lasers. At specified temperatures, the powder displays paramagnetic properties, which are pertinent to research on magnetic materials and potential applications such as magnetic cooling.
The luminescent properties of Nano-Holmium Oxide Powder are under investigation for biomedical imaging and therapy, for example as a contrast agent in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and in systems for targeted drug delivery.
