| The aim of this paper is to calculate the equilibrium displacements of the 4T2g potential surface minimum from the ground state along the a1g and eg Jahn-Teller active modes for the octahedral [MnF6]2- cluster obtained by doping Mn4+ ions in Cs2SiF6 host crystal. The equilibrium displacements in normal and Cartesian coordinates were estimated from force constants of [MnF6]2- cluster and Huang-Rhys factors associated with the Jahn-Teller stabilization energy. A net equatorial expansion and an axial stretching of the geometry of the [MnF6]2- cluster in first 4T2g excited state, as combined effect of the a1g and eg displacements, were demonstrated. |
