Figure 4

Simplified diagram of states arising from the , and combined Hamiltonians. Green dashed lines indicate states that have Δlz or Δjz=6 and red dotted lines indicate states that have Δlz or Δjz=3, corresponding to states that are mixed upon lowering to C3 symmetry. Note that this is a simplified picture that does not depict the mixing between Δjz=0 terms, for example, the lowest jz=±5/2 state mixes with the upper jz=±5/2 state and therefore derives partially from the j=7/2 SOC state as well as the lz=±2 CF state.
