Atomic No. 63 Eu Europium

About Europium

Europium is a lanthanide with atomic number 63 whose +2 and +3 oxidation states produce distinctly different optical behavior. Europium ions activate phosphors whose emission depends on both oxidation state and the host material. Such phosphors are used in lighting and displays, while europium luminescence also supports security markings on banknotes.
