Abstract

This paper gives an introduction into the optical phenomena of the Jahn-Teller effect. In a discussion of a limited number of systems the basic aspects of the effect are described. In section 2 orbital doublets are discussed (E-states): In 2.1 the Jahn-Teller theorem is formulated, in 2.2 it is applied to the E-state for static distortions using ions with a d9-configuration as examples, in 2.3.1 a case of tunnel splitting is described, and in 2.3.2 the theory of vibronic states is outlined. Sone further examples of the dynamic Jahn-Teller effect are given in 2.4.

Section 3 deals with orbital triplets (T-states): The coupling with Eg-and T2g-modes in the static case are briefly described in 3.1, weak spin-orbit interaction and the Ham-effect are discussed in 3.3.

In section 4 we give some criteria of the strength and observability of the Jahn-Teller effect in 4.1, and we conclude in 4.2 with a brief summery of the present state of experimental and theoretical methods.
