Abstract

Calculations of the fine structure of Cr3+ energy levels in Cs2NaYF6 accompanied by estimations of the Jahn-Teller (JT) stabilization energy in the first excited 4T2g state of Cr3+ ion are presented. Two independent approaches-effective second-order spin-orbit Hamiltonian and analysis of the potential energy surfaces-are used. The JT energy was estimated to be 216 and 257 cm-1 in the first and the second models, respectively. It is shown that the octahedral [CrF6]3- complex undergoes an equatorial expansion by 0.09 Å and an axial elongation by 0.02 Å due to the combined effect of the a1g and eg normal modes.
