Abstract
It is well known that homogeneous line widths (Γh) of RE3+ ions in glasses at low temperatures (T) sufficiently exceed ones in ordered crystals.1 Discrepancies between theory and experimental results don’t allow one to exactly determine an influence of hosts disordering on the Γh at T = 10-300 K.1 In order to find this influence, we chose for investigations ordered CaF2 and highly disordered CaF2-YF3 crystals with Nd3+ ions.
