For decades researchers have been exploring how to store data in glass because of its potential to hold information for a long time -- eons -- without applying power. A special type of glass that changes color in different wavelengths of light, called photochromic glass, holds promise for stable, reusable data storage. Now, researchers have developed a doped photochromic glass that has the potential to store rewritable data indefinitely, according to research published in ACS Energy Letters. Certain types of eyeglasses get darker when exposed to wavelengths of light emitted by the sun and then shift back to a colorless lens indoors when no longer exposed to those light waves through a process called reversible photochromism. Likewise, other types of photochromic glass can switch color in response to different wavelengths of light, making this material attractive as an inexpensive and stable platform for storing vast amounts of information in a small space. But the challenge in using photochromic glass for data storage involves not only writing information into the glass but also erasing and rewriting it ad infinitum. Now, Jiayan Liao, Ji Zhou, Zhengwen Yang and a multidisciplinary team have made progress toward this goal by creating reversible, tunable patterns on photochromic gallium silicate glass.

Terbium occurs in very small quantities in many rare-earth minerals. It's also been detected in the atmosphere of KELT-9b, a broiling hot Jupiter-like exoplanet 670 light-years from Earth.

Here let us call a temporary halt and take a look at the rare earths that were known up to 1907. I will list them in the order of discovery:

Seventeen rare earths were discovered. To be sure, didymium disappeared from the list but that still leaves sixteen.

China Just Turned Off U.S. Supplies Of Minerals Critical For Defense & Cleantech

In April 2025, while most of the world was clutching pearls over trade war tit-for-tat tariffs, China calmly walked over to the supply chain and yanked out a handful of critical bolts. The bolts are made of dysprosium, terbium, tungsten, indium and yttrium—the elements that don’t make headlines but without which your electric car doesn’t run, your fighter jet doesn’t fly, and your solar panels go…

Terbium/Toric

Toric- a nonbinary individual attracted to men.

Terbium is used in the compound Terfenol-D, which expands and contracts greatly in a magnetic field. The compound has been used in sonar and also commercially to turn surfaces into speakers.

My Strength For Honor

[shardthefuckingwhajje]

terbium hydride i honestly thought that was his name. i don't have the game it just makes sense

Bodhi Windbreaker Headcanons

because I don't see enough of him and as someone who is constantly told I emulate the 80s by most people I meet, I am qualified

Goes by he/they pronouns once he's explained that it's an option. he always preferred he over they but they still enjoy "they" as a pronoun (he has pride flags in his hair. I refuse to take criticism)

was raised by his grandmother since he was a kid, his mother was a 60s time capsule and his father was a 50s one

they passed in a freak geocache accident when he was young

loves LOVES showing you movies/music from his time

and if you already know them?? he's ELATED (you have to watch the movies with them anyways though. WILL pout with no shame if you don't want to)

Enjoys comedy movies the most

ABSOLUTELY stole the guitar pose bit from the characters from one of his favourite movies: Bill Etch. Preston, Esquire and Ted Theodore Lockgan (an etch-a-sketch and a bike lock who go on time travel adventures)

Not a fan of horror, in fact kind of a baby about it (is scared of ghosts the most)

not a huge fan of sci-fi either but swears you to secrecy about it because so much iconic sci-fi came out then

but LOVES any cult classic, like the movie about a gang of vamp-tires called "Lost Boys"

Once he gets over the whole ghost thing, him, Zoey, and Rainey like to listen to music together

Likes talking to Rainey about music from the 20s (reminds him of listening with his grandmother)

is fairly soft-spoken, overall. only gets loud when he's freaked out or excited

likes the Hanks but they also are very overwhelming for him

Is very glad the 80s are making a comeback with style and everything

thinks there's not enough guys wearing crop tops of they wanna bring back the 80s (AND HES RIGHT!!!!!)

Not a big fan of drinking either tbh, only goes to the bars to hang out with others

took them a while to get acclimated to everyone, especially the more modern objects

is very sociable and friendly, just gets overwhelmed easily (me too buddy)

phonecia tried introducing him to social media, he just got overwhelmed and now only has a singular Placebook account that has nothing on it

Is susceptible to believing Scandalabra at face value a few times. please help him

once someone pulls him aside and tells him, he'll feel a little betrayed "That was most heinous dude! Did not pass the vibe check! Did I use that right?"

likes hanging out with Dunk and Shelley, they match his energy

Is a little insecure about the lingo tbh, is worried they'll sound "like a grandpa or an uncool dude"

hides his face in his hair when he's feeling extra shy

(based on something @shardthefuckingwhajje said) full name is Bodacious H. Windbreaker

the H stands for Heinous

has only heard it twice in his life, both times he was in MUGO trouble with his grandmother

I didn't even realize this got so long oops looks like I'll have to make another one later

@mintglacier 🫡 the bodhi headcanons, as requested 😌

[elementcattos]

do you have anything about erbium cause you have so many stuffs i cant scroll all of them

If you want to see posts about a specific element or compound here, search their tag, like #erbium

So far Erbium has been portrayed together with all the other metals named after Ytterby, Sweden

A new way to control the magnetic properties of rare earth elements

The special properties of rare earth magnetic materials are due to the electrons in the 4f shell. Until now, the magnetic properties of 4f electrons were considered almost impossible to control. Now, a team from HZB, Freie Universität Berlin and other institutions has shown for the first time that laser pulses can influence 4f electrons- and thus change their magnetic properties. The discovery, which was made through experiments at EuXFEL and FLASH, opens up a new way to data storage with rare earth elements. The strongest magnets we know of are based on rare earths. Their 4f electrons are responsible for their magnetic properties: They generate a large magnetic moment that is maintained even when their chemical environment changes. This means that rare earths can be used in very different compounds and alloys without changing their special magnetic properties.

By 1907 ten more rare earth elements were located with atomic weights that placed them in this special gap. The list of thirteen are present in Table 4.
