Gadolinium (Gd) pellets are high-purity materials used in vacuum deposition processes such as thermal and electron beam evaporation. Gadolinium, a rare-earth metal, is known for its magnetic, thermal, and optical properties, making it suitable for applications in advanced materials, medical imaging, and electronics.

Key Applications:

• Magnetic Refrigeration: Gadolinium has a strong magnetocaloric effect, making it a key material in magnetic refrigeration technologies, which are more energy-efficient than traditional methods.
• Medical Imaging: Gadolinium is widely used as a contrast agent in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) due to its paramagnetic properties, enhancing image contrast.
• Optical Coatings: Gadolinium is used in thin films for optical devices, such as lenses and filters, due to its unique optical properties in the visible and infrared regions.
• Nuclear Reactors: Gadolinium is used in control rods for nuclear reactors due to its high neutron absorption cross-section.
• Data Storage: Gadolinium is utilized in magnetic thin films for high-density data storage technologies, where it enhances magnetic recording properties.

Features:

• Strong Magnetic Properties: Gadolinium exhibits significant paramagnetic behavior, especially near room temperature, making it useful in advanced magnetic applications.
• Optical and Thermal Stability: Gadolinium’s stability at high temperatures allows it to be deposited as a durable thin film in various optical and thermal applications.
• High Purity: The high purity of Gadolinium ensures optimal performance in precision deposition processes like thermal evaporation and e-beam evaporation.
• Rare-Earth Luminescence: Gadolinium can be used in luminescent materials, enhancing performance in lighting and display technologies.
