Synthesis and Physical Properties of Novel Lanthanide Phosphonates

This book talks about the synthesis,characterization of a few novel lanthanide-phosphonate complexes (inorganic-organic hybrids), their magnetic and luminescent properties. Temperature dependent magnetic susceptibility measurements were carried out on these materials at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory, Florida. Luminescence studies (solution and solid state) were carried out on all the materials.The book also gives an insight into the synthesis of tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) derived organic polymers and their characterization
