| Specifications: | Polycrystalline Lanthanide metal borides are extensively characterized by techniques including scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Auger electron spectroscopy (AES), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES), low-energy electron diffraction (LEED), transmission electron spectroscopy (TEM) and solid state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR).
Gadolinium hexaboride (GdB6) is an excellent cathode material because of its low work function, low volatility, low electrical resistivity, low sputtering coefficient, high mechanical strength and chemical resistance, etc.
