The measured low-temperature (4f){sup 3}->(4f){sup 2}5d excitation spectra of Nd{sup 3+} doped in crystals YPO{sub 4}, CaF{sub 4} and LiYF{sub 4} [van Pieterson et al., Phys. Rev. B 65 (2002) 045113] are assigned and analyzed using the simple model proposed by Duan et al. [Phys. Rev. B 66 (2002) 155108] and Ning et al. [J. Alloy. Compd. 366 (2004) 34]. The agreement between theoretical and observed energies and intensities are acceptable, and at the same time the spectra are assigned in more detail.
