Abstract

The exchange charge model of crystal field (which includes the covalent effects) is used to analyze the energy level schemes of Cr 3+ ion in ZnAl 2S 4 and ZnGa 20 4 crystals with spinel structure. Calculations of the overlap integrals and crystal field parameters were performed before getting the Cr 3+ energy levels. The calculated energy level schemes are compared with available experimental data; a new interpretation of the absorption peaks is suggested.
