Uses
Holmium(III) sulfate hydrate has specialized uses in ceramics, glass, phosphors and metal halide lamp, and dopant to garnet laser. Holmium lasers are used in medical, dental, and fiber-optical applications. Thulium oxide is an excellent thulium source which finds use in glass, optical and ceramic applications. Further, it is used in the manufacturing of portable X-ray transmission device. In addition to this, it finds use as a nuclear reactor control material. Nanostructured thulium oxide acts as an efficient biosensor in the field of medicinal chemistry.
