Abstract

Crystal field analysis of the energy level structure of lithium yttrium fluoride doped with trivalent dysprosium was performed. Assignment of absorption lines in experimental spectrum of absorption was made in a wide spectral region: from IR to UV. Crystal field parameters for the whole series of trivalent rare earth ions in LiYF4 crystal were obtained. The values of the intermediately coupled Lande g-factor were calculated and used to estimate the EPR g-factors g∥, g⊥ for LiYF4:Dy3+.
