- 1883, H[enry] Carrington Bolton, “List of New Elements Announced since 1877”, in An Account of the Progress in Chemistry in the Year 1882. [...] From the Smithsonian Report for 1882, Washington, D.C.: Government Printing Office, →OCLC, page 6:
- At a meeting of the Russian Chemical Society held October 20, 1881 (and reported in the Bulletin de la Société Chimique de Paris, for August, 1882), Mendelejeff [Dmitri Mendeleev], the distinguished author of the periodic law, remarked that only two of the recently announced elements—scandium and ytterbium—had been satisfactorily confirmed. These have been obtained in a pure state by [Lars Fredrik] Nilson, and neither of them has absorption spectra.
- 1991, John D. Corbett, “Coproportionation Routes to Reduced Lanthanide Halides”, in G[erd] Meyer, L[ester] R. Morss, editors, Synthesis of Lanthanide and Actinide Compounds (Topics in F-element Chemistry; 2), Dordrecht: Kluwer Academic Publishers, →ISBN, page 160:
- The lanthanides samarium, europium and ytterbium possess relatively stable and long-known dispositive states.
- 2006, Robert E. Krebs, “Guide to the Elements”, in The History and Use of Our Earth's Chemical Elements: A Reference Guide, 2nd edition, Westport, Conn.: Greenwood Press, →ISBN, page 301:
- Ytterbium is a silvery, soft, malleable, and ductile metal with a lustrous metallic shine. It is slightly reactive in air or water at room temperatures. Ytterbium is located next to last of the rare-earths in the lanthanide series.

- Microstructural optical fibers have been developed that have utilized phosphate-based glasses due to their ability to solubilize rare earth components such as ytterbium, which give the fibers their high light absorption and amplification per unit length.
- A single atom of this element.
Synonyms
[edit]- aldebaranium (name proposed by Baron Carl Auer von Welsbach, who isolated ytterbium and lutetium from ytterbia around 1907, which was later rejected)
- neoytterbia (former name)
