(a) Tanabe–Sugano diagram for Co2+ with a floating octahedral field ranging from 1 to 3 eV. No reduction in the Slater integrals is used. (b) Energy diagram at 10Dq = 2.3 eV, which is close to the crossover from high to low spin. Corresponding projection in terms of (c) crystal-field configurations and (d) atomic and cubic term symbols. |
