Energy Spectra,g Factors and Their Pressure—Induced and ／or Thermal Shifts of SrTiO3：Cr^3＋ and SrTiO3：Mn^4＋ I：energy Spectra and g Factors at Normal Pressure

With the strong-field scheme and cubic bases,the complete d^3 energy matrix in a tetragonally distorted cubic-field has been constructed.By diagonalizing this matrix,the energy spectra of SrTiO3:Cr^3 and SrTiO3:Mn^4 at normal pressure and various temperatures have been calculated.Correspondingly,the FORTRAN program calculating the g factor of the ground state has been worked out.By using the program and the wavefunction obtained from diagonalizing the complete energy matrix,the g factors of the ground state of SrTiO3:Cr^3 and SrTiO3:Mn^4 at normal pressure and room temperature have been evaluated.The calculated results are in good agreement with the optical-spectral and EPR experimental data.The comparison and analysis of the results of two crystals have been made.It is demonstrated that the covalency of the bonding between Mn^4 and ligands(O^2-) in SrTiO3:Mn^4 is stronger than the one of the bonding between Cr^3 and ligands(O^2-)in SrTiO3:Cr^3 .It is shown that the obtained wavefunctions and values of parameters are reasonable.     

Microscopic Theoretical Calculations of R—Line Thermal Shifts and Broadenings of MgO：Cr^3＋

By taking into account all the irreducible representations and their components in the electron-phonon interaction (EPI) as well as all the levels and the admixtures of basic wavefunctions within d^3 electronic configuration,the values of all the parameters in the expressions of thermal shift (TS) and thermal broadening (TB) due to EPI for the ground level,R level and R line of MgO:Cr^3 have microscopically been evaluated;and then,TS and TB of R line and various contributions to them have uniformly been calculated.The results are in very good agreement with the experimental data.It is found that all the three terms of TS due to EPI are red shifts;the Raman term is the largest one,and the optical-branch term and neighbor-level term are important for TS;the contribution to TS from thermal expansion is blue shift,which is also important.The R-line TS of MgO:Cr^3 comes from the first-order term of EPI.The elastic Raman scattering of acoustic phonons plays a dominant role in R-line TB of MgO:Cr^3 .For both TS and TB,it is very important to take into account all the admixtures of basic wavefunctions within d^3 electronic configuration.     

Theoretical Calculations of Thermal Shifts of Ground-StateZero-Field-Splitting for Ruby

By taking into account all the irreducible representations and their components in the electron-phonon interaction (EPI) as well as all the levels and the admixtures of wavefunctions within d³ electronic configuration, the thermal shifts (TS) of the ground-state zero-field-splitting (GSZFS) due to EPI for ruby have microscopic-theoretically been calculated; the contribution to TS of GSZFS from thermal expansion has also been calculated. The results are in very good agreement with experiments. It is found that the contributions from the first-order perturbation of the second-order term in EPI Hamiltonian are dominant in the Raman term and optical-branch term for TS of GSZFS; the different between the TS due to EPI of t₂^{3 4}A₂±(1/2) e₂ (G₂) level and the TS due to EPI of t₂^{3 4}A₂±(3/2) e₂ (G₁) level gives rise to the TS due to EPI of GSZFS, which is very small in comparison with the TS due to EPI of G₂ or G₁ level. Among various terms in TS of GSZFS, Raman term is the largest one and the signs of the Raman term and optical-branch term are opposite to the sign of the thermal-expansion term; the optical-branch term plays an important role in TS of GSZFS and increases rapidly with temperature; all various contributions to TS of GSZFS have to be taken into account, since the subtle balance among them determines the total result. The comparison between the features of TS of GSZFS and those of TS of R₁ and R₂ lines has been made. For TS of GSZFS, the contribution from thermal expansion is especially important; the neighbor-level term is insignificant.

A great improvement on a previous work (PHYS.Rev.B48 (1993) 14067) has been made.By taking into account all the irreducible representations and their components in the electron-phonon interaction (EPI) as well as all the levels and the admixtures of basic wavefunctions within d^3 electronic configuration,the values of all the parameters in the expressions of thermal shift(TS) and thermal broadening (TB) from EPI for the ground level,R level and R line of MgO:V^2 have microscopically been evaluated;and then,both the TS and TB of R line and various contributions to them have uniformly been calculated.The results are in very good agreement with the experimental data.It is found that all the three terms of TS from EPI are red shifts;the term of the contribution to TS from thermal expansion is blue shift.The Raman term is the largest,and the other terms are also important for TS.The R-line TS of MgO:V^2 comes from the first-order term of EPI.The elastic Raman scattering of acoustic phonons plays a dominant role in R-line TB of MgO:V^2 .For calculations of both the TS and TB,it is very important to take into account all the admixtures of wavefunctions.     

Energy Spectrum,g Factors,Strain-Induced Level-Splittingsand R-Line Thermal Shift of MgO:V2+

Traditional ligand-field theory has to be improved by taking into account both pure electronic contribution and electron-phonon interaction one (including lattice-vibrational relaxation energy). By means of improved ligand-field theory, the R line, t₂^{3 2}T₁ and t₂^{3 2}T₂ lines, t₂² (³T₁)e⁴T₂, t₂² (³T₁)e⁴T₁ and t₂ e²(⁴A₂)⁴T₁ bands, g factors of t₂^{3 4}A₂ and t₂^{3 2}E, four strain-induced level-splittings and R-line thermal shift of MgO:V₂₊ have been calculated. The results are in very good agreement with the experimental data. It is found that for MgO:V₂₊, the contributions due to electron-phonon interaction (EPI) come from the first-order term; the contributions from the second-order and higher terms are insignificant. In thermal shift of R line of MgO:V₂₊, the temperature-dependent contribution due to EPI is dominant. The results obtained in this work may be used in theoretical calculations of other effects of EPI.     

Energy Spectrum of YAG:Cr3+ and Thermal Shifts of Its R Lines

Traditional ligand-field theory has to be improved by taking into account both “pure electronic” contribution and electron-phonon interaction one (including lattice-vibrational relaxation energy). By means of improved ligand-field theory, R₁, R₂, R'₃, R'₂, and R'₁ lines, U band, ground-state zero-field-splitting (GSZFS) and ground-state g factors as well as thermal shifts of R₁ line and R₂ line of YAG:Cr³⁺ have been calculated. The results are in very good agreement with the experimental data. In contrast with ruby, the octahedron of ligand oxygen ions surrounding the central Cr³⁺ ion in YAG:Cr³⁺ is compressed along the [111] direction. Thus, for YAG:Cr³⁺ and ruby, the splitting of t₂³⁴A₂ (or t₂³²E) has opposite order, and the trigonal-field parameters of the two crystals have opposite signs. In thermal shifts of R₁ and R₂ lines of YAG:Cr³⁺, the temperature-dependent contributions due to EPI are dominant.     

Energy Spectrum and Its Pressure-Induced Shift and g Factor of ZnS:Mn2+

By using strong-field scheme, the complete d⁵ energy matrix with D_2d symmetry has been constructed. Then, by diagonalization of this matrix at normal and various pressures,the whole energy spectrum [including the ground-state zero-field-splitting (GSZFS)], its PS and the g factor of the ground state for zns:Mn²⁺ have uniformly been calculated. According to the eigenfunctions and PS, the new assignments of five absorption bands have been given.The variation of tetragonal field with pressure makes a main contribution to the pressureinduced shift (PS) of GSZFS of zns:Mn²⁺, which supports the existence of tetragonal Jahn-Teller distortion in zns:Mn²⁺. It is found that when P≥62 kbar, t₂⁴(³T₁)e⁴T₁ merges with t₂e^{4 2}T₂, which has to be taken into account in the calculation of PS of the fifth band in the range of 1 bar ~ 95 kbar. It is demonstrated that the Mn²⁺ ions in ZnS:Mn²⁺ have tetrahedral coordination, and the difference between ζ and ζ' caused by the covalency effect is very important for GSZFS. The physical essentials of typical levels, GSZFS and their PS have been revealed. By taking into account the influence of covalency on t₂³(⁴A₂)e²(³A₂)⁴A₁ and t₂³(²E)e²(³A₂)⁴E, the positon of the third absorption band at normal pressure has been estimated.

By using the wavefunctions obtained from diagonalizing the complete d^3 energy matrix at normal and various pressures,the g factor of the ground state of SrTiO3:Cr^3 and its pressure-induced shift have been microscopically calculated.Only by taking the local strains around Cr^3 in SrTiO3:Cr^3 (which are about twice the bulk ones)and corresponding P-χ dependence,can we obtain a good agreement etween the calculated result of pressure-induced shift of ground-state g factor and the experimental one.The physical origins of this pressure-induced shift have been explained.It is found that the change of Dq^-1 with pressure makes main contribution to the pressure-induced shift of ground-state g factor of SrTiO3:Cr^3 .By using the wavefunctions obtained from diagonalizing the complete d^3 energy matrix at normal pressure,the relevant matrix elements and accordingly strain-induced splittings of t2^32E and t2^34A2 of SrTiO3:Cr^3 have been calculated.The important results of Yc.Zc,Pc and Qc have also been evaluated.It is the admixtures of basic wavefunctions resulted from the spin-orbit interaction and /or Coulomb interaction and /or Kramers degeneracy that make the strain-induced splittings of the levels nonzero.It is found that there are nonvanishing matrix elements of operators T2ξ between wavefuncgtions with positive Ms and those with negative Ms′ and those with negative ms′,which have important effects on the strain-induced splittings of the levels.
