The rare earths play a unique role in science. These seventeen
related elements afford a panoply of subtle variations deriving
from the systematic development of their electronic configurations,
allowing a test of theory with excellent resolution. In contrast
they find widespread use in even the most mundane processes such as
steel making, for polishing materials and gasoline cracking
catalysts. In between are exotic uses such as TV screen phosphors,
lasers, high strength permanent magnets and chemical probes.
This multi-volume handbook covers the entire rare earth field in an
integrated manner. Each chapter is a comprehensive up-to-date,
critical review of a particular segment of the field. The work
offers the researcher and graduate student alike, a complete and
thorough coverage of this fascinating field.
