Tungsten(III) oxide

Tungsten(III) oxide (W2O3) is a compound of tungsten and oxygen. It has been reported (2006) as being grown as a thin film by atomic layer deposition at temperatures between 140 and 240 °C using W2(N(CH3)2)6 as a precursor.[1] It is not referred to in major textbooks.[2][3] Some older literature refers to the compound W2O3 but as the atomic weight of tungsten was believed at the time to be 92, i.e., approximately half the modern accepted value of 183.84, the compound actually being referred to was WO3.[4]

Usage

Tungsten(III) oxide is used in various types of infrared absorbing coatings and foils.[5]

gollark: Then there's a 20-day gap until a november release and then a 25-day gap until christmas.
gollark: Well, yes, by 10 days or so.
gollark: You have *two months* and it's not like new releases take long.
gollark: Eh? What's the use of that?
gollark: Are there just going to be no non-holiday releases until january, then?
