An approximate analytical treatment of theE⊗ε Jahn-Teller effect using Glauber states
C. C. Chancey · Journal of Physics A Mathematical and General · 1984
The octahedral Jahn-Teller system E ⊗ is studied using generalised Glauber states which are strong-coupling eigenstates of the system. It is shown that these Glauber states become, under certain conditions, equivalent to the weak-coupling eigenstates obtainable from standard perturbation theory. Eigenstates are thus obtained for the system which can be applied using perturbative procedures over the complete range of coupling strengths. Expressions which are functions of the coupling strength are obtained for the energies, the ground state Ham factor p and the A to E absorption intensities. The results compare well with the available numerical calculations.
