R. China 3 Electronics Design Division, Department of Information Technology and Media, Mid-Sweden University, SE-85170 Sundsvall, Sweden Abstract ：Low temperature photoluminescence spectra were measured under the selective excitation to the 3+ 3+ 3+ energy levels of Gd , Er and Sm respectively. Corresponding transitions were assigned with the help of fluorescence decay measurements. By assuming that the rare earth ion is in C2v symmetry instead of the actual C , crystal field calculations were carried out based on the deduced experimental energy level data 2 3+ 3+ of Er and Sm . The theoretical result is in good agreement with the experimental data. The tendency of crystal field parameters was also discussed. 3+ 3+ Keywords: LiKGdF5 :Er , Sm ; photoluminescence; selective excitation; crystal field calculation. 1. Introduction Anisotropic fluoride crystals are favorable hosts for the doping of rare earth ions, owing to the interesting optical properties they exhibits, including the polarized optical spectra, transparency over large spectral region and low nonlinearitie
