Description

The values of the Slater-Condon (F2, F4, F6), Racah (E1, E2, E3) and Lande (Xisub(4f) coefficients, the nephelauxetic ratio (β), the bonding parameter (delta), and the Judd-Ofelt intensity Tsub(lambda) parameters have been calculated from the reported absorption spectra of Pr3+, Nd3+, and Er3+ ions in an aprotic solvent SeOCl2 acidified with antimony pentachloride. The nature of the bonding is suggested to be covalent for praseodymium, neodymium and erbium ions in the laser liquid in view of the magnitude of the respective bonding parameters. (author)
