Abstract

The energy of the ⁴A₂ → ⁴T₂ transition of 3d³ ions in octahedral sites decreases with increasing temperature, with a consequent reduction in the energy separation, Δ, between ⁴T₂ and ²E levels. This can significantly affect the spectroscopic properties of Cr³⁺-doped materials with small Δ values. These materials are of interest because of their possible use in tunable laser systems. Some experimentally measured values of this shift are presented, the mixing of ²E and ⁴T₂ electronic-vibrational states when Δ is small is estimated, and the effects of this mixing on the spectroscopic properties are discussed.
