Description

Glass bead doped with Rhodium (Rh3+) Ions
Material: ZnBaP:Rh3+
Size about 13mm – Weight ~ 1.2g
Color: Orange
Nice glass bead. Each one handmade of phosphate glass in our lab.
Doping glasses with Rhodium is a very complicated task and several attempts failed due to the extremely low solublity of Rh in any glass matrix. Finally I was able to successfully produce some Rh3+ containing glass samples containing several mol% of Rh3+.

Beautiful optical glass beads doped with metal ions.

Elaborately and individually manufactured by us in the laboratory from highly pure reagents.
Gorgeous beads showing the typical colors of different metal ions in different oxidation states.

They can be used for save demonstration of different colors of the metal compounds or just for collecting.
