  2. Yttrium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yttrium

    Yttrium is a key ingredient in the yttrium barium copper oxide (YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7, aka 'YBCO' or '1-2-3') superconductor developed at the University of Alabama in Huntsville and the University of Houston in 1987. [49] This superconductor is notable because the operating superconductivity temperature is above liquid nitrogen's boiling point (77.1 K ...

  3. Yttrium compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yttrium_compounds

    Among them, yttrium oxide can be prepared by heating yttrium carbonate or yttrium oxalate. Alternatively the oxychloride, Y 3 O 4 Cl can be heated in air to yield the oxide. Yttrium hydroxide can be precipitated by the reaction of soluble yttrium compounds with sodium hydroxide or ammonia, and can also be obtained by the hydrolysis of yttrium ...

  4. Yttrium(II) oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yttrium(II)_oxide

    Yttrium(II) oxide or yttrium monoxide is a chemical compound with the formula YO. This chemical compound was first created in its solid form by pulsed laser deposition, using yttrium(III) oxide as the target at 350 °C. The film was deposited on calcium fluoride using a krypton monofluoride laser. This resulted in a 200 nm flim of yttrium ...

  5. Yttria-stabilized zirconia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yttria-stabilized_zirconia

    Yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) is a ceramic in which the cubic crystal structure of zirconium dioxide is made stable at room temperature by an addition of yttrium oxide. These oxides are commonly called "zirconia" ( Zr O 2 ) and "yttria" ( Y 2 O 3 ), hence the name.

  6. Ytterbium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ytterbium

    Ytterbium is often the most common substitute in yttrium minerals. In very few known cases/occurrences ytterbium prevails over yttrium, as, e.g., in xenotime-(Yb). A report of native ytterbium from the Moon's regolith is known. [20]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rare-earth_element

    In 1803 they obtained a white oxide and called it ceria. Martin Heinrich Klaproth independently discovered the same oxide and called it ochroia. It took another 30 years for researchers to determine that other elements were contained in the two ores ceria and yttria (the similarity of the rare-earth metals' chemical properties made their ...

  9. Yttrium(III) oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yttrium(III)_oxide

    Yttrium oxide is used to stabilize the Zirconia in late-generation porcelain-free metal-free dental ceramics. This is a very hard ceramic used as a strong base material in some full ceramic restorations. [9] The zirconia used in dentistry is zirconium oxide which has been stabilized with the addition of yttrium oxide. The full name of zirconia ...
