Abstract
This investigation was motivated by a recent observation that the intensity of the white lines at the L3 and L2 absorption edges of Nd3+ is markedly increased in going from pure NdF3 crystal, which is highly ionic in character, to a NdF3-doped BeF2 glass [1]. The normal electronic configuration of the rare-earth (RE) ions in the trivalent state may be written as (Xe) 4fn, with n = 0, 1,...14 for La3+, Ce3+... Lu3+ respectively.
