Abstract Inelastic neutron scattering experiments have been carried out on polycrystalline ErAl2 and on the related pseudobinary compound La0.9Er0.1Al2 in the paramagnetic phase. For ErAl2 the parameters of the cubic crystal field could uniquely be determined as x=+0.16 and W=−0.030 meV. The results on the dilute sample are different from this and are thought to be due effective charges of Er and La being not equivalent.
