> Wilhelm Karl Klemm was an inorganic and physical chemist. 
Klemm did extensive work on intermetallic compounds, rare earth metals, transition elements and compounds involving oxygen and fluorine. 
He and Heinrich Bommer were the first to isolate elemental erbium (1934) and ytterbium (1936).
Klemm refined Eduard Zintl's ideas about the structure of intermetallic compounds and their connections to develop the Zintl-Klemm concept.
