· Ba4 Lu8 O16

Ba₄Lu₈O₁₆ is a barium lutetium oxide ceramic compound belonging to the rare-earth oxide semiconductor family, characterized by a complex crystal structure combining alkaline-earth and rare-earth elements. This material is primarily of research interest for optoelectronic and photonic applications, where its wide bandgap and thermal stability make it a candidate for UV-transparent ceramics, scintillators, and potential solid-state laser hosts, though industrial-scale adoption remains limited compared to more established rare-earth ceramics.

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
