Product Code : EM-LaF3-5N-Cu
Lanthanum fluoride (LaF3) is a chemical compound that can be used as an evaporation material. It is a pale blue-white solid which is insoluble in water. When heated, it vapourizes quickly, releasing a vapour of lanthanum and fluorine with a boiling point of 2090°C. Its evaporation rate is very high, making it an ideal material for the deposition of a wide range of thin films and coatings. Its high refractive index makes it an excellent choice for the production of optical coatings. Lanthanum fluoride has also been used in the production of semiconductor devices such as lasers, LEDs, and photodetectors.
