Description

General description

Indium(III) fluoride is a white crystalline solid with a relatively high melting point. It is a wide band gap semiconductor suitable for optoelectronic applications. Non-oxide glasses are made using indium(III) fluoride.

Application

Indium(III) fluoride can be used:

• As a precursor to prepare indium oxide thin films for various applications.
• To fabricate Pr³⁺/Er³⁺ co-doped glasses for white light emission.
• For surface fluorination treatment of Indium-based quantum dots to enhance their photoluminescence quantum yield.
• As an electrolyte additive for Li-metal batteries to enhance theircycling performance.
