✦ Synopsis

An expression for the crystal field strength is defined in terms of one-electron energies and crystal field parameters. The relative contribution of kinetic energy and Coulombic interaction in ligand field effects is analyzed. The angular overlap model is applied to 11 rareearth or rareearthdoped compounds.
