Transferability of crystal-field parameters for rare-earth ions in Y$_2$SiO$_5$ tested by Zeeman spectroscopy (1811.00158v1)
Published 31 Oct 2018 in cond-mat.mtrl-sci and physics.atom-ph
Abstract: Zeeman spectroscopy is used to demonstrate that phenomenological crystal-field parameters determined for the two $C_1$ point-group sites in Er${3+}$:Y$_2$SiO$_5$ may be transferred to other ions. The two crystallographic six- and seven-coordinate substitutional sites may be distinguished by comparing the spectra with crystal-field calculations.
