"2 coordinate lanthanide complex magnet-like properties... high-density hard disks, quantum computing applications, and faster and compact memory... synthetic ligand design... isolate the rare and precious two-coordinate species, but also to reveal, for the first time ever, a huge energy level separation, just as theory had predicted. This complex is a synthetic achievement that shows the incredible potential of these molecules... smaller and faster memory devices and quantum computers...low >10°K"
