Handbook on the Physics and Chemistry of Rare Earths: Including Actinides, Volume 69 in this ongoing series, highlights new advances in the field, with this new volume presenting interesting chapters written by an international board of authors who explore topics such as Lanthanide-based light upconversion implemented in molecular complexes using linear optics, Rare Earth-Transition Metal-Arsenides, and Molecular Complexes of High-Oxidation State Lanthanide Ions.
