Abstract

Copper doped single crystals of calcium tartrate tetrahydrate are grown from silica gel. The optical absorption spectrum is investigated with polarised and unpolarised beams of incident light. The spectrum is attributed to the Cu 2+ ion in C 4V symmetry associated with spin-orbit coupling. The following crystal field parameters are evaluated: Dq = 1000 cm −1; λ = −830 cm −1; Ds = 1540 cm −1; Dt = 470 cm −1.
