Addressing this issue, the Chinese research team has developed a novel architecture that incorporates 243Am into a ...

The team used a new technique to create a pure isotope of the element, and the discovery could make protection of this rare element easier, while also increasing our understanding of lanthanide ...

A newly discovered protein naturally houses an unusual binding site that can differentiate between rare earth elements, and ...

To start with, the rare earth elements occupy the lanthanide series on the periodic table – the top row of the two that are often split off the main table, a lot like Alaska and Hawaii are ...

The protein, called LanD, enriches neodymium and praseodymium over other similar REEs and has the potential to revolutionize industrial mining.

As a result, the history of lanthanide discovery is full of incorrect claims and heated disputes among would-be discoverers. The first, somewhat furtive, signal from element 63 was recorded in ...

Typically, molecules considered for quantum applications aren’t as big as Buckminsterfullerene. “The overwhelming majority of ...

Media coverage and an oft-cited resource assessment may be overhyping the Norwegian Continental Shelf’s mineral wealth.

That's because identifying the 15 lanthanide elements took over one hundred and fifty years, from the isolation of the first compounds to the synthesis of the last lanthanide, radioactive promethium, ...

She will speak on her award-winning contributions to the separations of two of the actinides - the series of 15 metallic ...

This discovery was particularly pleasing because it was also the first four coordinate compound of any lanthanide. Mind you, what put it into perspective was that on the other side of the bench from ...

current applications and latest research developments in the field of luminescent lanthanide complexes; a rapidly developing area of research which is attracting increasing interest amongst the ...
