Crystal field parameters and g-factors of the ground Kramers doublet of Ce3+ ion in LiYF4 crystal
Abstract
Analytical expressions are obtained for g-factors of the ground Kramers doublet of the impurity Ce3+ ions in LiYF4 crystal that rigorously take into account mixing of the 2F5/2 and 2F7/2 multiplets by crystal field. Dependence of g-factors on crystal field parameters is studied and possibilities of making conclusions about crystal filed parameters values on the basis of comparison with g-factors given in literature are considered.
