Abstract
This article briefly reviews the major research progress of 9 typical material fields, including rare earth luminescence materials, catalysis, rare earth materials for biomedical applications, magnetic materials, optical crystals, molecular-based materials, energy materials, metals and alloys, as well as rare earth extraction, separation and recycling in the year 2024. The aim of the review is to summarize the past and look into the future, and it will provide a basic overview of domestic work in related fields last year. Due to the abundance of content, the review strives to be concise.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Rare Earths reports studies on the 17 rare earth elements. It is a unique English-language learned journal that publishes works on various aspects of basic theory and applied science in the field of rare earths (RE). The journal accepts original high-quality original research papers and review articles with inventive content, and complete experimental data. It represents high academic standards and new progress in the RE field. Due to the advantage of abundant RE resources of China, the research on RE develops very actively, and papers on the latest progress in this field emerge every year. It is not only an important resource in which technicians publish and obtain their latest research results on RE, but also an important way of reflecting the updated progress in RE research field.
The Journal of Rare Earths covers all research and application of RE rare earths including spectroscopy, luminescence and phosphors, rare earth catalysis, magnetism and magnetic materials, advanced rare earth materials, RE chemistry & hydrometallurgy, RE metallography & pyrometallurgy, RE new materials, RE solid state physics & solid state chemistry, rare earth applications, RE analysis & test, RE geology & ore dressing, etc.
