It's not a real compound
The chemical formulasof indium oxides are InOand In2O3.
Indium bond with lots of elements to form compounds. Examples: Indium + Phosphorus --> Indium Phosphide Indium + Bromine --> Indium (I/III) Bromide Indium + Fluorine --> Indium Fluoride Indium + Oxygen --> Indium Oxide Indium + Antimony --> Indium Antimonide Indium + Arsenic --> Indium Arsenide
The code is ITO (but this is not a true chemical formula); this is a mixture of In2O3 and SnO2.
ITO, a mixture of indium oxide In2O3 (90 %) and SnO2 (10 %) is largely used for displays coatings being transparent and electrically conductive. Also used in solar cells, glasses for sodium vapor lamps, infrared mirrors, etc. The metal is used in some alloys, coating for bearings as lubricant, control rods for nuclear reactors (alloy Ag-In-Cd) etc. See the link below for more information. Indium is also used as an N type dopant in some semiconductor devices (the corresponding P type dopant is Antimony).
Indium forms the following bromides InBr3, indium tribromide, indium (III) bromide InBr, Indium monobromide, Indium(I) bromide InBr2, indium dibromide, In+ InBr4- , indium (I,III) bromide there are others which are not so well known
Indium forms a number of chlorides InCl3, indium trichloride InCl, indium monochloride InCl2, indium dichloride
caves have indium in it
Indium wire and indium foil
Fe2O3 is Iron 3 oxide
The chemical formula of calcium oxide is CaO.
The full name is Indium (III) Chloride and the formula is InCl3there are other chlorides as indium forms the In+ ion as well as In3+Indium monochloride, indium(I) chlorideIndium dichloride, Indium (I,III) chloride
