Opplysninger | "Lanthanides and actinides are a group of elements in the periodic table with atomic numbers from 57-103. These elements have very specific properties and are also called "f elements", a name derived from their general electronic structure. Traditionally these metals are treated in very short chapters in general inorganic chemistry textbooks, so this book fills an important gap in the introductory inorganic chemistry publications. Since publication of the previous edition in 2006, there has been an explosive growth in lanthanide and actinide research and f-elements are becoming increasingly important in a wide variety of applications based on their particular chemical, electronic, magnetic and optical properties. This book offers the basic knowledge to support the growing number of students and researchers in this growing field. Important applications of lanthanides and actinides include superconductors, fuel cells, single-molecule magnets, lasers, imaging and sensors. Organometallic lanthanides have become important in synthetic organic chemistry, and as shift and contrast agencies in NMR and MRI. Lanthanides: Lanthanum, Cerium, Praseodymium, Neodymum, Promethium, Samarium, Europium, Gadolinium, Terbium, Dysprosium, Holmium, Erbium, Thulium, Ytterbium, Lutetium Actinides: Actinium, Thorium, Protactinium, Uranium, Neptunium, Plutonium, Americium, Curium, Berkelium, Californium, Einsteinium, Fermium, Mendelevium, Nobelium, Lawrencium"--
