abstract = {The Dorenbos relation is an empirical model that relates
the position of the lowest fd level of any lanthanide ion
with that of Ce3+ in the same host lattice. The relation is
widely used to estimate the energy of fd levels of trivalent
lanthanide ions in a given host lattice based on the peak
position of the lowest fd level of at least one of the
lanthanide ions in that host. The energy of fd levels is
determined from peak maxima in excitation and emission
spectra. In this work we use the position of zero-phonon
lines (ZPLs) as input to investigate the accuracy of the
Dorenbos relation. To this end, the ZPL positions of the fd
bands for trivalent lanthanide ions in four different host
lattices (CaF2, Y3Al5O12, LiYF4, and YPO4) were obtained and
used as input in the Dorenbos relation. The results are
compared to those obtained through the standard procedure
using band maxima. The data indicate that the ZPL approach
gives more accurate estimates for the position of the lowest
fd level with standard deviations that are 2–3 times
smaller than those obtained for band maxima. The results
confirm the concept of the Dorenbos model (constant energy
difference between the fd levels of lanthanides) and show
that the accuracy is even better than previously reported.
The main cause for the larger deviation from positions of
band maxima is related to a larger inaccuracy in determining
band maxima compared to ZPLs.},
