Abstract
The optical absorption of a single crystal of VSO4.7H2O was measured in the range 9000–35,000 cm−1. The three observed bands were assigned to transitions between the four orbital levels resulting from cubic electrostatic perturbation of the spherical terms of configuration 3d3. Values of Dq = 1200 cm−1 and E = 10,000 cm−1 were derived from the spectral analysis.
