Sejarah
Europium was first found by Paul Émile Lecoq de Boisbaudran in 1890.

In 1896, French chemist Eugène-Antole Demarçay identified spectroscopic lines in ‘samarium' caused by europium.

He successfully isolated europium in 1901 using repeated crystallizations of samarium magnesium nitrate.

Aplikasi
Europium is used in the manufacture of fluorescent glass.

It is also used in the anti-counterfeiting phosphors in Euro banknotes.

Europium-doped plastic has been used as a laser material.

Europium isotopes are good neutron absorbers and are used in nuclear reactor control rods.
Europium is considered to be mildly toxic
