Abstract

Abstract The magnetic behaviour of the normal-temperature-form of CsTmO2 (NT-CsTmO2) has been studied in the temperature range between 2.9 and 251.3 K. In order to interpret the magnetic data a method applying the angular overlap model has been established to assess the crystal-field (CF) parameters of NT-CsTmO2 (CF symmetry: D3d) from the known CF parameters for Tm3+ substituted in YVO4 (CF symmetry: D2d)-With these CF parameters the observed magnetic properties of NT-CsTmO2 can be satisfactorily simulated. The calculation of the paramagnetic principal susceptibilities yields a high magnetic anisotropy, especially at low temperatures. The energy values of the CF levels of the 3H6 ground state are calculated.
