Funded Activity Summary

Heterobimetallic Coordination Complexes Containing Rare Earth and d-Block Ions. Rare earth compounds have major industrial applications such as MRI contrast agents and as catalysts within the rubber and petroleum industries. The fundamental knowledge ensuing from this project has the potential to produce new and advanced magnetic materials. Nanotechnological industries are being developed in Australia and this research will provide materials with the capacity to act as optical or electrical switches, magnetic storage devices or molecular sensors. This pioneering work will ensure that Australia remains at the forefront of chemical research within the rapidly advancing field of magnetochemistry.
