Description

Effects of crystal electrical field (CEF) in the orthorhombic phase of RBa2Cu3Ox (R = Ho, Er; x = 6.9, 6.4) are investigated by inelastic magnetic neutron scattering (IMNS). The level schemes of the lowest multiplet of 4f-shell of the rare-earth ion are found. In this paper it is shown that the experimental scattering spectra and their variation depending on the oxygen content may be explained by spacial distribution of the negative charge within the unit cell
