We report a crystal-field analysis of Nd3+-doped KY3F10 nanocrystals. As well as electronic energy levels obtained from absorption and fluorescence, we fit to magnetic-field splittings for fields of up to 4T. The resulting parameters accurately account for the Zeeman interaction, including non-linear effects. The fitted parameters are similar to those for bulk crystals. The parameters are compared with ab-initio calculations and superposition-model analyses.
