Analysis of spectra of neat and lanthanide ion-doped KPb 2Cl 5 excited by synchrotron radiation

The excitation and emission spectra of neat K 2PbCl 5, and also doped with the lanthanide ions Pr 3+, Nd 3+, Er 3+ and Tm 3+ have been recorded at temperatures down to 10K using synchrotron radiation. To facilitate the spectral assignments, a first principles calculation has been performed and despi...
