✦ Synopsis
Spectroscopic studies are reported of Crs3+ : LiNbOs and of Cr3+-doped MgO-LiNbOa, with different C?+ doping levels. A knowledge of the defect structure of melt grown crystals enables an assignment of the R-line structure of C?+ ions to independent optical eentres involving Nb'+ and Li+ ion sites. Site-selective laser spectroscopy of Cr'+-doped LiNbO, confirms that charge compensation for Cr'+ ions occupying Li+ and Nb 5+ sites is not via exchange coupled nearest-neigbbour pairs of Cr'+(Li+ )-Cr'+ ( Nbs+ ) ions. The R lines observed using photoluminescence are shown to be inhomogeneously broadened by disorder.
