Indium is a very soft metal. I haven’t got a sample here. Itmelts at 150 degrees or so.This is an example of indium it is a really, really quite nicechemical element this one. We can use it for lots and lots ofselective types of catalysis, but generally when it is forming acomplex with other organic ligands. But here we can see areally nice example of indium and this is 99.9% pure.But it’s a metal which has suddenly become very much moreexpensive because its oxide is transparent to light but willconduct electricity. So it is indium oxide that you find onevery LCD display. Here is a rather old computer and here isan old fashioned computer, the LCD display was quite smalland gradually they have got bigger and bigger and thereforedemand for indium oxide is more and more a...
