General description
Ytterbium(III) oxide (Yb₂O₃) is a wide bandgap(~3.26eV) material with high thermal stability, suitable for optoelectronic devices. It can be a potential host material for development of phosphors and solid-state lighting technologies. Furthermore, Yb₂O₃ nanofibers are being explored for renewable energy applications, particularly in enhancing the efficiency of solar cells and photocatalytic processes.
