A new many‐electron crystal field formalism for the f N ‐configuration in lanthanide and actinide ions is presented. An effective crystal field Hamiltonian is obtained by projecting the original electronic Hamiltonian of an f‐cluster (f N ‐ion + ligand environment) on the subspace of [ J, M ] > functions of the f N ‐configuration of the central ion. On the basis of this formalism a semiempirical many‐electron method is developed that allows for a practical ab initio calculation of crystal field energies in f N ‐systems. The important role of many‐electron crystal field effects in f N ‐systems with significant covalent contributions is discussed.
