Correlation-crystal-field analysis of Nd3+(4f3) energy-level structures in various crystal hosts

We have performed an in-depth correlation-crystal-field (CCF) analysis of the energy-level structures in 10 Nd 3+ (4f 3 ) crystal systems: NdF 3 , Nd 2 Te 4 O 11 , NdVO 4 , NdPO 4 , Nd 3+ :LiYF 4 , Nd 3+ :LaVO 4 , Nd 3+ :LaCl 3 , Nd 3+ :BaY 2 F 8 , Nd 3+ :YAlO 3 and Nd 3+ :LuA1O 3 .
