Lanthanum Hexaboride Sheet, LaB6 Sheet
Lanthanum hexaboride (LaB6) sheet is a ceramic material that has exceptional electrical conductivity and is commonly used as an electron emitter in electron microscopy and other electron beam applications. LaB6 sheet has a high melting point and is resistant to oxidation, making it an ideal choice for use in high-temperature environments. It also has a low work function, which means that it can emit electrons with little energy input.
LaB6 sheet is available in various sizes and thicknesses and can be customized to meet specific application requirements. Its unique combination of properties makes it an attractive material for use in scientific research, as well as in industrial applications such as welding, metal processing, and surface treatment.
