AbstractThe 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.

Abstract The magnetic behaviour of Cs2MYbF6 (M = Na, K, Rb) and Cs2NaYbBr6 has been studied in the temperature range between 3.5 and 251.3 K. The magnetic data are interpreted by means of a previously developed model in which the influence of the crystal field is theoretically described by the angular overlap model. The obtained values of the angular overlap parameter eσ(R) for the individual compounds are discussed and compared with each other. The energy values of the crystal-field levels of the 2F7/2 ground state are calculated.

Ratios between the cubic ligand-field parameters Δ, as predicted by the crystal-field model, are presented and compared with those obtained when utilizing the angular-overlap model. The remarkable similarities revealed are attributed to symmetry by introducing a symmetry- orientated reparameterization of the crystal-field model. A new parametric equivalence between the two models, based on the effects of symmetry, is established. Arguments suggesting a unified model are outlined.
