Abstract
The spectroscopic properties of YAG: Ce3+ crystal caused by the d-f transitions of Ce3+ ions are investigated theoretically. In the framework of the mean-field approximation for crystal field the Stark states energies of 5d 1 excited electronic configuration of Ce3+ ion are determined and the corresponding wave functions are constructed. The line strengths of electric dipole d-{vnf} transitions, the probabilities of spontaneous transitions and radiative lifetimes are calculated.
