Abstract

The aim of this paper is to simulate the energy level schemes for some host matrices doped with transition metals ions. These schemes will be calculated in the frame of the Symmetry Adapted Axes System (SAAS). In recent years, some materials doped with tetrahedral Co2+ ions have attracted much attention due to their excellent absorption and emission properties. For the considered systems, the energy level schemes are obtained by diagonalizing the Hamiltonian of the system in the base of Co2+ and Cr3+. The obtained values of the energy levels are compared with experimental data and a satisfactory agreement is demonstrated..
