NdIII
NdIII refers to the trivalent oxidation state of the chemical element neodymium. Neodymium is a soft, silvery-white metal that belongs to the lanthanide series. It is one of the most abundant rare-earth elements. In its trivalent state, neodymium readily forms compounds. NdIII ions are characterized by their distinctive pink and purple colors, which are often observed in neodymium-doped glass and crystals. This coloration is due to the electronic transitions within the 4f electron shell of the neodymium ion.
NdIII compounds are widely used in various technological applications. Neodymium-doped neodymium:YAG (Nd:YAG) lasers are common in
