Application
Nuclear power industry, production of thermoelectric equipment, special radiation-absorbing enamels, production of tunable-frequency lasers, magnetic data carriers. Isotope 170 Tm is used in portable X-ray units and metallographic flaw detectors. Tulium monotelluride has a significant electromotive force. It is the basis of the most effective thermal transducers. The use of tulium as nuclear fuel is being developed.
