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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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.
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 ...
Yttrium oxide may refer to: Yttrium(II) oxide, YO, a dark brown solid; Yttrium(III) oxide, Y 2 O 3, a colorless solid This page was last edited on 12 September ...
Yttrium iron garnet (YIG) is a kind of synthetic garnet, with chemical composition Y 3 Fe 2 (FeO 4) 3, or Y 3 Fe 5 O 12. It is a ferrimagnetic material [1] with a Curie temperature of 560 K. [2] YIG may also be known as yttrium ferrite garnet, or as iron yttrium oxide or yttrium iron oxide, the latter two names usually associated with powdered ...
Yttriaite-(Y) is an exceedingly rare mineral, a natural form of yttrium oxide, Y 2 O 3. [3] [2] In terms of chemistry it is yttrium-analogue of kangite, arsenolite, avicennite and senarmontite (isometric minerals).
