Abstract
The basic absorption spectra of Er in Bi2TeO5 crystals are presented and an alyzed, Eight transitions were identified from the I-4(15/2) ground state w ith all the possible Stark components at 10 K, Further splitting of the lin es indicated three major sites for Er3+ in the crystal. Transitions from th e higher Stark levels of the ground state were identified at 200 K, The spe ctroscopic observations are in good agreement with previous results on oxid e crystals exhibiting similar coordination number and symmetry.
