Abstract
We discuss the origin of the crystalline electric fields for rare earth ions in transition and noble metal hosts, in terms of the band character of the host material and of localization and delocalization of 5d electrons on the rare earth ions. A tentative explanation is given for the almost pure negative point charge character found in Pd and Pt.
