Trace elements are increasingly widely used in the high - tech and medical sectors — for example, the transition metal tantalum and the semimetal germanium in electronic components, niobium and titanium in alloys and coatings, or gadolinium as a contrast medium and in luminous paints.

One was finally found and tantalum was used as the bonding agent.

«Tantalum is used in every electronic device there is,» says Jack Lifton, an independent consultant specializing in technology metals.

The DRC produces half the world's cobalt, used in batteries, and is also an important source of gold and the «three Ts» — tungsten, tin and tantalum — which are present in the capacitors and circuitry in phones.

Nanoparticles made with a shell of silica (SiO2) and a core of radiopaque tantalum oxide (TaOx) are used to make a tissue adhesive and visible to ultrasound, X-ray, and fluorescent imaging.

Using the Center for Nanoscale Materials, a DOE Office of Science user facility at Argonne, they built a constricted wire out of a three - layered structure in which a tiny layer of magnetic material is sandwiched between tantalum and tantalum - oxide layers.
