Inorganic chemistry

a model in which the electric field of surrounding ions or ligands splits the energies of a metal ion's d orbitals.

In inorganic chemistry, crystal field theory refers to a model in which the electric field of surrounding ions or ligands splits the energies of a metal ion's d orbitals. This meaning comes from Bethe (1929) in Annalen der Physik.[1]
