Using the recently developed method based on a combination of DFT plane wave code applied to extract the crystal field parameters and a local atomic like Hamiltonian involving electron-electron, spin-orbit and Zeeman terms we calculated the energy levels of ground and excited multiplets of Yb3+ and Er3+ ions hosted in ytterbium and yttrium aluminum garnet (YbAG and YAG) including their crystal and magnetic field splitting. The obtained energy levels and derived magnetic properties are compared with the experimental data from magnetometry, photoluminiscence and near-infrared spectroscopy
