Erbium (Er) rods introduction
QSAM is the supplier of rare earth metal including Erbium products, such as rods, bars. Most comercial grade products could obtain the purity of 99.5% in general, with Erbium /total rare earth metal (REM) purity 99.99%.If the order quantity is small, Erbium rods are directly machined from cast ingots. In cases of low demand or when finer rods (also referred to as wire) are needed, QSAM can leverage our advanced rare earth metal processing equipment for the drawing process. Following this, the rods undergo a polishing step to eliminate the oxide layer.
Erbium introduction
Erbium, symbolized by Er and atomic number 68, is a rare earth metal with unique properties that make it valuable in various applications. Erbium is widely used in the field of fiber optics and telecommunications due to its ability to amplify optical signals. It is a key component in erbium-doped fiber amplifiers (EDFAs), which are essential for long-distance data transmission in optical communication networks. Erbium-doped fibers efficiently amplify light signals in the 1550 nm wavelength range, enabling high-speed internet and long-haul communication. Erbium is also utilized in the production of lasers, particularly in medical, industrial, and scientific applications. Its emission characteristics in the infrared spectrum allow for precise and efficient laser processing of materials, such as cutting, welding, and marking. With its contributions to fiber optics, telecommunications, and laser technology, erbium plays a crucial role in advancing communication systems and enabling various industrial processes.
Erbium Rod Packaging
Erbium Rod are vacuum sealed in plastic bags or argon protected in other container for safety shipment. We also use heavy foam to protect this rare earth material. Common documents together with these rare earth metals are packing list and analytical report (COA).
