lanthanide

lanthanide
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.
Syn: lanthanate, lanthanoid, lanthanum, lanthanon, -ide, rare-earth element
