Erbium is a chemical element in the lanthanide series and it is a rare earth element. It is bright, soft metal and has six stable isotopes: ¹⁶²Er, ¹⁶⁴Er, ¹⁶⁶Er, ¹⁶⁷Er, ¹⁶⁸Er and ¹⁷⁰Er. There is no free Erbium in nature because it is so active and it is always found minerals, such as monazite, bastnasite, xenotime and euxenite. Complex ion-exchange process is used to get pure Erbium from xenotime and euxenite.

Erbium is mainly used in nuclear industrial,  making photographic filter. Erbium oxide is pink, so it is used for the color on glass.
