The ultraviolet absorption spectra of Ce 3+, 0.005%, in crystals of the alkaline-earth fluorides Ca F 2, Sr F 2, and Ba F 2 have been measured at both room and liquid-nitrogen temperatures. The general features in the spectra of all three hosts are similar. The ultraviolet spectra of Ce 3+, 0.005% to 5%, in Ca F 2 show three regions of interconfigurational absorption which may be assigned as:(1) 4 f→ 5 d bands from about 31 000 to 56 000 cm− 1, with half-width about 2000 cm− 1 at Ce 3+ concentration∼ 10− 2%;(2) 4 f→ 6 s weak and broad band from 60 000 to about 77 000 cm− 1 with maximal absorption at about 70 000 cm− 1; and (3) a charge-transfer absorption, F−(2 p 6)→ Ce 3+(6 s), appearing as an apparent red shift of the absorption edge of the host Ca F 2 at approximately 80 000 cm− 1. The assignments of these three regions of absorption are based on the location, width, number, oscillator strength, and temperature dependence of the bands. The effect of large Ce 3+ concentration,≥ 0.1%, on the uv absorption spectra of Ce 3+ is interpreted as the result of cluster formation from pairs of Ce 3+-interstitial F−. The vibronic structure in the lowest 4 f→ 5 d band may be conceived in terms of pseudolocalized vibrations, as in the case of several divalent rare-earth ions in alkali halides treated by Wagner and Bron.
