The invention discloses two dysprosium complexes doped with a 8-hydroxyquinoline derivative and 1,10-phenanthroline in a mixed mode and a preparation method and application of the dysprosium complexes. The two dysprosium complexes are a No. 1 complex and a No. 2 complex, wherein the No. 1 complex has a chemical formula of Dy(L1)<2>(L2)(NO3), and the No. 2 complex has a chemical formula of Dy(L3)<2>(L2)(NO3); and L1 is a product which is obtained by removing hydroxyl hydrogen atoms from 2-methyl-5,7-dibromo-8-hydroxyquinoline and carries one unit of negative charges, L2 is 1,10-phenanthroline,and L3 is a product which is obtained by removing hydroxyl hydrogen atoms from 2-methyl-5,7-dichloro-8-hydroxyquinoline and carries one unit of negative charges. The two complexes belong to a monoclinic system and a P21 / c space group, and the two complexes have a simple preparation method, high yield, good repeatability and field-induced single-molecule magnet behaviors, and can be applied to preparation of magnetic materials.
