Abstract: | Far-infrared measurements (17–170 cm−1) are reported for SrF2:RE3+ (RE = Pr, Nd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm).The vibrations of the F−i compensation ions reveal the local symmetry (Oh, C4v, C3v). The concentration of ions in each local site and the frequencies of the F−i vibrations in the C4v site show a regular evolution vs RE ionic radii.The study of electronic transitions within the ground manifold of the RE ions shows a similar evolution. For Dy3+ we detect lines already attributed to C3v (F−i) sites. New lines observed with Er3+ and Dy3+ can be attributed to C4v (F−i) sites, and the crystal field parameters that we have calculated are close to those of the C4v (F−i) site in CaF2.For Nd3+ the electronic line is close to a C4v level observed by EPR. |
