Abstract

Formulation of radiative transition probabilities of 5d¹→4f¹ of Ce³⁺ and of 4f⁶5d→4f⁷ of Eu²⁺ in a cubic crystal field is performed using pure 5d and 4f wavefunctions. The emitting state of Ce³⁺ is 5d(T₂) or 5d(E). The coupled states of the 4f⁶(⁷F) core and 5d(t₂ or e) are taken as the emitting states of Eu²⁺. Line strengths are calculated for all possible transitions, and transition probability distributions over the terminal states are obtained. The estimated radiative lifetimes of Ce³⁺ are about a half of the observed ones. For Eu²⁺, the calculated lifetimes are about thirty times as long as the observed ones. The theory suggests that Ce³⁺ has the largest radiative transition probability in the rare-earth ions exhibiting 5d-4f luminescence.
