Abstract

A single‐state algebraic parametrization is applied to 47 free‐ion triply ionized lanthanide electronic states that originate from 11 ions embedded in four various octahedral hosts, mainly in Cs2NaLaCl6 matrix. The obtained single‐state parametrizations averaged over the considered |J⟩ states of 2J + 1 degeneracy adequately reproduce the conventional fitting parametrization, where as many pairs of the cubic B 40 and B 60 crystal field (CF) parameters as the states in the configuration are replaced by only one universal pair. This is the essence of the fitting procedure. The comparison between the single‐state parametrizations and the corresponding fitted parametrization reveals the structure of anatomy of the fitting as well as the component states of the configuration giving an untypical contribution to the mean value. The single‐state parametrization unveils directly not only the physical CF parameters of the state but also the host ligand strength, it means its position in the spectrochemical series.
