Gadolinium Nitrate 99.999% is used for making laser crystal and dopant for Gadolinium Yttrium Garnets which have microwave applications, also applied in special catalyst and phosphors. Gadolinium Nitrate is also used for making green phosphors for color TV tubes. It is used in many quality assurance applications, such as line sources and calibration phantoms. It is used for making Gadolinium Yttrium Garnets (Gd:Y3Al5O12); it has microwave applications and is used in fabrication of various optical components and as substrate material for magneto-optical films. Gadolinium Gallium Garnet (GGG, Gd3Ga5O12) was used for imitation diamonds and for computer bubble memory.
