Erbium Oxide Nanoparticles/Nanopowder

Erbium Oxide Properties 
                                                 
Erbium Oxide which has a pink color with a cubic crystal structure, is synthesized from the metal erbium. Erbium metal tarnishes slowly in air. Erbiumburns readily to form Erbium Oxide. Erbium oxide is insoluble in water and soluble in mineral acids. Er2O3 readily absorb moisture and carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
It can react with acids to form the corresponding Erbium (III) salts. For example, with hydrochloric acid, the oxide follows the reaction Er2O3 + 6 HCl → 2 ErCl3 + 3 H2O to form erbium chloride.
One interesting property of erbium oxides is their ability to up convert energy. Energy up conversion takes place when infrared or visible radiation, low energy light, is converted to ultraviolet or violet radiation higher energy light via multiple transfer or absorption of energy.                                                                                                                                                     
Applications of Erbium Oxide Nanoparticles/Nanopowder
   

The applications of Erbium Oxide nanoparticles/nanopowder are varied due to their electrical, optical and photoluminescence properties. Nanoscale materials doped with Er+3 are of much interest because they have special particle-size-dependent optical and electrical properties. Erbium oxide doped nanoparticle/nanopowder materials can be dispersed in glass or plastic for display purposes, such as display monitors. The spectroscopy of Er+3 electronic transitions in host crystals lattices of nanoparticles/nanopowder combined with ultrasonically formed geometries in aqueous solution of carbon nanotubes is of great interest for synthesis of photoluminescence nanoparticles/ nanopowder in ‘green’ chemistry. Erbium Oxidenanoparticles are among the most important rare earth metals used in biomedicine. The photoluminescence property of erbium oxide nanoparticles/nanopowder on carbon nanotubes 
makes them useful in biomedical applications. For example, erbium oxide nanoparticles/nanopowder can be surface modified for distribution into aqueous and non-aqueous media for bioimaging. Erbium oxides are also used as gate dielectrics in semiconductor devices since it has a high dielectric constant and a large band gap. Erbium oxide nanoparticles/nanopowder are sometimes used as a coloring for glasses and erbium oxide nanoparticles/ nanopowder can also be used as a burnable neutron poison for nuclear fuel.

Improving Dialysis Process with Graphene

Researchers from Mechanical and Electrical Engineering Departments of MIT recently showed that graphene is a powerful material candidate for use in the dialysis systems (such as hemodialysis machines in medical institutes for filtering human blood). In order to prepare graphene as a dialysis material, researchers used a procedure opposite to the general treatments that nanotechnology people use. Dialysis is a process of filtering different solutions such as human blood by a membrane in order to remove waste molecules, drugs, chemical residues from the solution. In some cases, the process can be used for purification of chemicals or isolation of different molecules for medical diagnosis. It is an essential process for scientists especially in the medical operations.

Graphene Oxide Dispersion

Graphene oxide refers to a mono-atomic layer material obtained when graphite crystals are oxidized. This is one of the graphene materials that are commercially available because of  its ability to dissolve in water  which makes the oxidation process suitable. In this article, we will talk about the  synthesis, the properties and some of the applications of graphene oxide dispersion in water . Seven Properties of Graphene Oxide Dispersion The properties of a material are defined through its structure, however, this material is very peculiar, since there is no unambiguous model of this material. Graphene Oxide dispersion offers remarkable physical, chemical and mechanical properties that give the opportunity to new applications. Graphene Oxide is amorphous , but, in general, graphene oxide can be described as a two-dimensional sheet containing honeycomb carbon atoms with functional groups of hydroxide and oxygen, unlike the graphene model that seeks to completely re...
