We discuss the origin of the crystalline electric fields for rare earth ions in transition and noble metal hosts, in terms of the band character of the host material and of localization and delocalization of 5d electrons on the rare earth ions. A tentative explanation is given for the almost pure negative point charge character found in Pd and Pt.

AbstractThe g values of rare earth ions obtained from either paramagnetic resonance or Zeeman measurements are often used to interpret the location and/or environment surrounding rare earth ions. In the case of centres with cubic symmetry the g value can be used to distinguish between substitutional and interstitial sites. For centres with less than cubic symmetry the average g value, taken as 1/3 trace of the g tensor, is often used as an indication of the lattice location and/or a measure of the strength of the local crystal field. This approach is widely used but is based on the assumption that the non-cubic terms in the total crystal field potential are small compared with the cubic crystal field. In this paper we have explored this assumption by calculating the principal g values in axial crystal fields for the Er3+ ion. We examine the limits over which the average g value approach is valid. Comparison is made with published results.
