21. Holmium has the highest magnetic moment ( ) of any naturally occurring element and possesses other unusual magnetic properties.22. Holmium is relatively inexpensive for a rare-earth metal with the price about US $ 1000 per kg.23. Ytterbium, holmium , thulium, and erbium are other common " dopants " in solid-state lasers. 24. The primary decay products before 166 Er are holmium isotopes, and the primary products after are thulium isotopes. 25. The primary decay products before 164 Dy are terbium isotopes, and the primary products after are holmium isotopes. 26. High amount of hafnium, holmium and thallium also allows retaining some of the ? phase at room temperature. 27. The procedure termed Holmium Laser Ablation of the Prostate ( HoLAP ) has been gaining acceptance around the world. 28. Holmium laser use results in smaller fragments than 320 or 365 micron pulsed dye lasers or electrohydraulic and mechanical methods.29. Whereas GreenLight relies on haemoglobin as a chromophore, water within the target tissue is the chromophore for Holmium lasers. 30. Three kinds of lasers are being studied as ways to blast a clot : excimer, holmium and pulsed-dye.
