Lanthanum iron oxide

Lanthanum iron oxide is used as a sputtering target material for the deposition of thin films in the development of multiferroic devices and magnetic sensors.

As a rare earth perovskite oxide, it is utilized in catalytic applications, particularly for the oxidation of carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons.

Synthesized in nanocrystalline form for use in gas sensing applications due to its high sensitivity to ethanol and acetone at elevated temperatures.
