イットリウム(ラテン語: yttrium 英語発音: [ˈɪtriəm])は、原子番号39の元素である。元素記号はYである。単体は軟らかく銀光沢をもつ金属である。遷移金属に属すがランタノイドと化学的性質が似ているので希土類元素に分類される。唯一の安定同位体89Yのみ希土類鉱物中に存在する。単体は天然には存在しない。 1787年にがスウェーデンのイッテルビーの近くで未知の鉱物を発見し、町名にちなんで「イッテルバイト」と名づけた。ヨハン・ガドリンはアレニウスの見つけた鉱物からイットリウムの酸化物を発見し、アンデルス・エーケベリはそれをイットリアと名づけた。1828年にフリードリヒ・ヴェーラーは鉱物からイットリウムの単体を取り出した。イットリウムは蛍光体に使われ、赤色蛍光体はテレビのブラウン管ディスプレイやLEDに使われている。ほかには電極、電解質、電気フィルタ、レーザー、超伝導体などに使われ、医療技術にも応用されている。イットリウムは生理活性物質ではないが、その化合物は人間の肺に害をおよぼす。
