Based on the experimental data of KY 3F 10∶Tm 3+ reported by Diaf, K ushida′s spectral overlap model (SOM) of energy transfer between J-multipl ets was studied. Firstly, with the help of the Inokuti-Hirayama and Yokota-Tan imoto models, the luminescence decay curve of 3H 4 of Tm 3+ ion was fitted, and the fitted values of corresponding interaction parameters C D A of energy transfer and C DD of energy migration were obtained. Seco ndly, by compared with Kushida′s SOM in which the relevant Judd-Ofelt approxim ative transition rates are known, the average overlap integrals of S DD and S DA were obtained. For S DD, how to treat the contributi on of the electronic-dipole (ED) crystal field transition forbidden by C 4v site symmetry in the calculation of S DD was discussed. For S DA we suggested that, by including the contribution of the phonon sideba nds in the analysis of oscillator strength of transition, Kushida′s SOM of ED- ED resonant energy transfer rate can be extended to non-resonant phonon-assist ed D-A energy transfer. The strengths and widths of phonon sidebands in this ex ample were discussed, and the results were reasonably good.
