  The synthesis, structural description, temperature dependent magnetic
susceptibilities and field dependent magnetizations of a series of rare earth
garnets of the form Li3RE3Te2O12 (RE = Y, La, Pr, Nd, Sm-Lu) are reported. The
structure of Li3Dy3Te2O12 is refined from powder X-ray diffraction data. The
field dependent magnetizations saturate for some of the members by 9 Tesla at 2
K. Of particular interest for further study in this family is the behavior of
the Pr, Tb, Dy and Yb garnets.
