Get under the Umbrella: A Comprehensive Gateway for Researchers on Lanthanide‐Based Single‐Molecule Magnets
Kévin Bernot
Abstract
Abstract The number of scientific articles that need to be considered to cover a research topic is ever‐increasing and quite difficult for a newcomer to assimilate. This is particularly true in dynamic discipline like Molecular Magnetism. In order to help young researchers in this field, this article proposes a “review of reviews” also known as an “umbrella review” on lanthanide‐based single‐molecule magnets ( 4 f ‐SMM). As a preamble, various bibliographic search techniques and AI‐based tools for bibliographic search, indexing, and summarization are proposed and commented. Then, the main milestones in 4 f ‐SMM are identified. In the core of the paper, books, book articles, and reviews dealing with 4 f ‐SMM are contextualized and classified by subtopics. This article is therefore proposed as a gateway to the 4 f ‐SMM field.
