Tullius brand, chemical structure
General characteristics
Thulium is a chemical element of group III of table D. I. Mendeleyev, in which he is designated as Tm. The atomic weight 168,9. This is a plastic silvery metal of the lanthanide series, rare item. Its content in the lithosphere of 2.7·10-5%, the richest Tullius euxenite, xenotime, monazite. Celebrate the opening of the thulium belongs to two scientists. In 1879 Swedish chemist Cleve was able to isolate from a mixture of oxides — oxide of thulium. In its pure form, this element was obtained in 1911 by Richardson, who determined its basic physico-chemical quality. The name of the element named after the legendary Northern Islands of Thule.

Use
Borat thulium is widely used in nuclear energy. In the production of ions of thulium lasers are used for excitation radiation in the infrared part of the spectrum with a wavelength of 1910 nm. Pair this metal used in lasers with tunable frequency. This is a valuable thermoelectric material. It is also used in magnetic media. Monotelluride thulium has a high efficiency and a significant E. D. s is the basis of thermal converters, it regulates the properties of the semiconductor lead telluride. The isotope thulium-170 is used in metal flaw detectors and portable x-ray machines. Is developed its use as fuel for nuclear boilers.
