Meanings
noun

镧系元素

Any of the 14 rare earth elements from cerium (or from lanthanum) to lutetium in the periodic table; because their outermost orbitals are empty, they have very similar chemistry; below them are the actinides.

Examples :

"Many modern electronics rely on lanthanides, like neodymium, to create powerful magnets used in speakers and hard drives. "
许多现代电子产品依赖于镧系元素，例如钕，来制造扬声器和硬盘驱动器中使用的强力磁铁。
