Contents:

Preface; Chapter 223. Rare-earth Materials for Solid Oxide Fuels (SOFC) by Natsuko Sakai, Katsuhiko Yamaji, Teruhisa Horita, Yue Ping Xiong and Harumi Yokokawa National Institute of Advanced Industrial Scien; Chapter 224. Oxo-selenates of Rare Earth Elements by Mathias S. Wickleder and Carl von Ossietzky Universität Oldenburg, Oldenburg, Germany; Chapter 225. Rare-earth Beta-diketonates by Koen Binnemans Catholic University of Leuven, Leuven, Belgium.

Summary: 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.
