Description

This high Sm content samarium potassium phosphate glass ingot is a fascinating and rare material, renowned for its unique optical properties. Under normal lighting conditions, it appears peach yellow. When exposed to 365 nm UV light, it displays orange fluorescence. Due to the high Sm³⁺ content, optical quenching occurs, resulting in a fluorescence that is weaker compared to more diluted glass samples. With a diameter of approximately 30 mm and a weight between 28-32 grams, this high-quality glass ingot is perfect for advanced material studies and cutting-edge experiments.

We are able to cast large rods with several cm diameter and lengths up to 50mm

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.
