✦ Synopsis

Electric dipole strengths calculated with the combined static coupling (SC)/dynamic coupling (DC) intensity model for 4f ~ 4f transitions in lanthanide complexes contain SC/DC cross-term ("interference") contributions which may add to or subtract from the purely static and dynamic contributions. Calculations for europium (III) complexes show that crossterms cannot be neglected in characterizing 4f--, 4f intensities.
