In the present tetragonal modification of dysprosium orthomolybdate, Dy(2)(MoO(4))(3), the Dy, one Mo and one O atom are located on a mirror plane with Wyckoff symbol 4e, while another Mo atom is located on a fourfold inverse axis, Wyckoff symbol 2a. A single crystal was selected from a polycrystalline mixture of the Dy(2)O(3)-ZrO(2)-MoO(3) system and was stable at room temperature for at least...

We present a temperature and fluence dependent Ultrafast X-Ray Diffraction study of a laser-heated antiferromagnetic dysprosium thin film. The loss of antiferromagnetic order is evidenced by a pronounced lattice contraction. We devise a method to determine the energy flow between the phonon and spin system from calibrated Bragg peak positions in thermal equilibrium. Reestablishing the magnetic ...

Dysprosium-doped Ruddlesden−Popper calcium manganates with compositions of Ca2-xDyxMnO4 are potential candidates for high temperature thermoelectric applications. The effect dysprosium doping on the crystal structure at room and its thermal behavior between RT 800 °C were investigated in range 0 < x 0.2 by Rietveld analysis RT- HT- X-ray powder diffraction data. confirmed compatibility all anal...

Neutron activation analysis with dysprosium as a tracer was employed to determine quantitatively the microleakage around the restorations of an experimental hydrophobic composite, as well as a commercial composite. Only a negligible uptake of tracer was obtained for the experimental composite, whereas a five-fold uptake was recorded for the commercial composite. Capillary penetration of fluid a...

The first trimetallic dysprosocenium single-molecule magnet is described. This material signposts a polycationic dysprosium metallocene SMM with properties that could surpass those of leading systems.

Four half-sandwich type mononuclear lanthanide crown ether complexes with the formula [Ln(12-crown-4)(NO3)3] (Ln3+ = Dy3+ (1), Tb3+ (2), Ho3+ (3), and Er3+ (4); 12-crown-4 = 1,4,7,10-tetraoxacyclododecane) were successfully synthesized and structurally characterized. Ac magnetic susceptibility measurements reveal that dysprosium complex 1 behaves as a typical single-ion magnet, while solid stat...

The heptadentate Schiff base ligand, 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1,3-bis[4-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-3-azabut-3-enyl]-1,3-imidazoline (H(3)api), yields [Ln(2)api(2)] species when combined with lanthanide salts under basic conditions. A survey of the magnetic properties of this dinuclear lanthanide motif (Ln = Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho) has identified weak magnetic exchange, antiferromagnetic in nature for the isotropic g...

The title compound sodium dysprosium(III) bis-[tungs-tate(VI)], NaDy(WO(4))(2), has been synthesized under high temperature solution growth (HTSG) conditions in air. The compound crystallizes with the scheelite structure and is composed of isolated WO(4) tetra-hedra ( symmetry) with one set of bond lengths and distorted [(Na/Dy)O(8)] dodeca-hedra ( symmetry; occupancy ratio Na:Dy = 1:1) with tw...
