Lanthanum dioxide (LaO₂) is a rare-earth oxide ceramic belonging to the lanthanide oxide family, characterized by high density and stiffness. While primarily of research interest rather than established industrial production, LaO₂ and related rare-earth oxides are investigated for applications requiring thermal stability, chemical inertness, and radiation resistance—particularly in nuclear fuel cycles, high-temperature structural ceramics, and advanced optical/photonic devices where rare-earth dopants provide unique functional properties.
