Td splitting smaller than Oh; e set lower, t2 higher (inverted pattern vs Oh naming)
What each symbol means
| Symbol | What it stands for |
|---|---|
| \Delta_t | Tetrahedral crystal field splitting parameter |
When to use this
Approximate ratio Δt/Δo = 4/9 for same metal and ligands at same distance — JEE uses this factor often.
