  1. We note that the zero phonon line (ZPL) of SnV and PbV may be lowered induced by the spin–orbit coupling that we neglect here. The values inside the parenthesis are experimental data
  2. The δ is the energy difference between the \(|\,{}^3\tilde A_{2u}\rangle\) and \(|\,{}^3\tilde E_u\rangle\) states
