We report results of Stern-Gerlach deflection experiments on terbium c
lusters, which resemble earlier results for gadolinium clusters. As in
gadolinium, we observe two distinct behaviors: clusters that are supe
rparamagnetic and clusters that are described by a locked-moment model
. The magnetic behavior is highly size dependent. Certain clusters mak
e a transition from locked-moment to superparamagnetic behavior with i
ncreasing temperature and, in this process, exhibit an intermediate be
havior. Both superparamagnetic and locked-moment clusters have magneti
c moments per atom well below the bulk value. We show that oxygen atom
s attached to the clusters have little effect on the clusters' magneti
c properties and are not responsible for the two distinct behaviors ob
served in rare earth clusters. We also present preliminary results fro
m studies on dysprosium clusters.
