MSE PRO™ 4N (99.99%) Scandium Oxide (Sc₂O₃) Pieces (2-6mm) Evaporation Materials

Scandium oxide (Sc₂O₃) is widely used as an optical coating material mostly due to its high refractive index, high transparency, as well as high resistance to laser irradiation, and high melting point. It is also commonly used for high-power laser applications. Moreover, Sc₂O₃films exhibit strong photoluminescent character under UV irradiation. It can be used as the gate oxide material and surface passivation due to its high dielectric permittivity and chemical stability. It is also a trending material in fuel cells and novel generation of silicon-based devices.
