Abstract: | The 52 × 52 energy matrix related to the ground multiplet 4I9/2 and the first to third excited multiplets 4I11/2, 4I13/2 and 4I15/2 for 4f3 ions in trigonal crystal field under an external magnetic field is established. By diagonalizing the energy matrix, the spin-Hamiltonian parameters (g factor g//, g⊥ and hyperfine structure constants 143A//, 143A⊥, 145A//, 145A⊥) of the trigonal Nd3+ center in congruent LiNbO3 crystal are calculated. The calculated results are in reasonable agreement with the experimental values. From the calculations, the negative signs of hyperfine structure constants are suggested and the angular distortion of the trigonal Nd3+ center in LiNbO3, which is unable to be determined by EXAFS measurement, is obtained. The results are discussed. |
