Fig. 7.6 (a) Three-level structure consisting of ground state, odd-parity state, and even-parity
state. (b) The energy difference between the odd-parity state and even-parity state is plotted versus
the optical gap energy. (c) The transition dipole moments between the two excited states |1

and
|2
are plotted versus the transition dipole moment between the ground state and odd-parity state.

The
De 2 curve for Ni-Br-Br calculated by the three-level model is shown in
Fig. 7.4b by the broken line, which reproduces well the oscillating behavior of the
experimental
De 2 spectrum. From this analysis, two important features are obtained;
one is that the energy difference (
DE ¼ ho 2 ho 1 ) of the two excited states is very
small, being 10 meV. The other is that the transition dipole moments between |1
>
and |2 > ( < 1 jxj 2 > ) is very large, exceeding 20 ˚ . The analysis indicates the
existence of two discrete levels of excited states. It is, therefore, reasonable to
consider that both |1
>
and |2
>
are not due to the continuum but due to excitonic
states.
Similar analyses of the ER spectra in the other Ni-X chain compounds revealed
that those two features in the

chain compounds. In Fig. 7.6b , the energy difference
