Cerium oxide

Cerium oxide is a primary rare earth oxide used in glass polishing, UV absorption, and as a catalyst support in automotive catalytic converters.

Cerium oxide targets are used in sputtering processes to create high-refractive index thin films for optical filters and protective coatings.

Used as a high-index material in multilayer optical coatings to enhance reflectivity or provide UV protection in precision optics.

Cerium oxide is utilized as an evaporation source for the deposition of thin films in the manufacture of optical components and dielectric layers.

Applied as a thermal spray coating to provide corrosion resistance and thermal insulation for high-temperature industrial components.
