Crystal field splitting patterns of the 4f orbitals

If we place six ligands at the centers of the faces of a cube, as shown in Fig. 8.11.3, it can be readily seen that the (2u orbitals (x3, y3, z3) have lobes pointing directly toward the ligands. Hence they have the highest energy. Also, [Pg.297]

Splitting pattern of the 4f orbitals in a tetrahedral crystal field. [Pg.298]

The splitting pattern of the 4f orbitals in a tetrahedral crystal field can be deduced in a similar manner. If we adopt the coordinate system shown in Fig. 8.11.4, we can obtain the splitting pattern shown in the same figure. As expected the 1 3 3 pattern for the tetrahedral crystal field is just the reverse of the 3 3 1 pattern of the octahedral field. Also, the symmetry classification of the orbitals in a tetrahedral complex can be readily obtained from the character table of the Td group. [Pg.298]
