BISMUTH OXIDE
Description
Bismuth(III) oxide is perhaps the most industrially important compound of bismuth. It is also a common starting point for bismuth chemistry. It is found naturally as the mineral bismite and sphaerobismoite, but it is usually obtained as a by-product of the smelting of copper and lead ores.
Application
Application
Bismuth oxides have been considered as an interesting material because of their dielectric properties and have been used for applications such as optical coatings, metal-insulator-semiconductor capacitors and microwave-integrated circuits.
