Abstract
The low-lying quantum states of the F3+ color center have been calculated for the equilateral-triangular configuration in KCl. The calculation has been done under the assumption that the crystal is a dielectric medium with an effective dielectric constant. The possibility that the new optical absorption band appearing at 1.29 eV in KCl is due to the F3+ center is also discussed in this paper.
