The perturbation formulas of the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) parameters g∥, g⊥, A∥ and A⊥ for a 4f3(Nd3+) ion in tetragonal symmetry are established in this work. In these formulas, the contributions to the EPR parameters arising from the second-order perturbation terms and the admixtures of different states are included. Then the above formulas are applied to a tetragonal Nd3+ center in LiYF4, where the related crystal-field parameters are calculated from the superposition model and the local structural parameters of the Y3+ site occupied by the impurity Nd3+. The EPR parameters and the optical spectra within the 4I9/2 and 4I11/2 states obtained in this work agree reasonably with the observed values.
