Description: The element symbol for ytterbium is Yb. Atomic weight 173.04(3).
The melting point is 824°C, the boiling point is 1427°C, the relative density is 6.977 (α-type), and it is a silver-white metal. It is ductile and soft in quality.
There are two crystal structures: α-type is a face-centered cubic crystal system (room temperature -798°C); β-type is a body-centered cubic (above 798°C) crystal lattice. Insoluble in cold water, soluble in acid and liquid ammonia.
Application:Used as laser material, portable X-ray source, Yb ions are important sensitizers for luminescent materials. Yb can be used for medical diagnosis, new organic luminescent materials (OLED) display materials,
