Abstract This paper presents high-order perturbation calculations for the zero-field splitting parameters D, F, and a of Fe3+-VCd pairs in RbCdF3 and CsCdF3 crystals doped with Fe3+ impurities. In comparison with experimental data, the present results are better than those obtained in previous work by using the phenomenological su-perposition model of spin-Hamiltonian. Moreover, the crystal fields arising from the Cd2+-vacancy and their induced crystal lattice distortion are analysed and calculated. It is found that the contribution from the Cd2+-vacancies cannot be ignored. Mena-while, we obtain that a ligand F- along the [001]-axis moves towards the central Fe3+ ion by $\Delta$= 0.0020nm in RbCdF3 and 0.0028nm in CsCdF3. These results are quite different from $\Delta$ = 0.0104nm and $\Delta$ = 0.0112nm, respectively, obtained in previous work by using the superposition model of spin-Hamiltonian and ignoring the effect of the vacancy.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
