Abstract
The optical spectra of KNi and KMg: crystals have been measured between 5000 and 40 000 and from 300 to 4.2°K. Five bands were observed and used to determine three parameters in the ligand field analysis. The cubic crystal field splitting was determined to be 7250 and the Racah parameters and . In KNi, below the Néel temperature of 275°K, there was an average additional shift of 320 to higher energies as compared with the magnetically disordered in KMg. This is explained on a molecular field model. An unexpected splitting below of the transition in KNi, which was not observed in the magnetically dilute crystals has been observed.
