It is also a good fluo rescent matrix for rare earth elements. Yttrium Vanadate doped with Erbium (Er:YVO4) has been researched a great deal lately, because of its distinctive op tical prope rties. Figuring out the energy level structure of Yttrium Vanadate crystal is of great significance to understanding the luminescence Properties of Er:YVO4. Photoluminescence (PL) is the process in which the electrons of a fluorescent substance absorb the energy of excitation laser, transition to a highe r energy state, and then return to a lower energy state accompanied by the emission of a photon. Therefore, experimentally, PL can be used to determine the energy level structure of the Er3+ ion that is the lumino us center of the Er:YVO4 crystal. On the other hand, crystal field theor y can be used to calculate the energy level structure of Er3+ ion. The authors interpret the method to calculate the crystal field energy levels of Er:YVO4 crystal with a charge model based on the crystal Coulomb pot ential and the perturbation theory. The effective parallel and vertical g-factors are also determined from the calculated eigenstates. As an example, the crystal levels and its correspo nding effective g factor s of Er:YVO4 crystals were calculated. The author also measured the PL spectra of Er:YVO4 crystal in different pulsed magnetic field with sample rod designed by her. The wavenumber depende nce of B got by data processing of the PL spectra showed that the author’s theoretical results was valid. Add itionally, theoretical inno vations expressed within this article include: (1) the Clebs h-Gordon coefficients for the coupling of two or more angular momentums are calculated by raising and lowering angular momentum operators. (2) The general method to derive the Stevens equivalent angular momentum op erator correspo nding to the
