Abstract
Persistent spectral hole burning (PSHB) was observed in SrZrO3:Pr3+ ba sed oxides. Holes were observed only in samples which contain protons or deuterons. The speed of hole growth and hole filling for the sample s which contain protons were faster than that for the samples which co ntain deuterons. It was found that the mechanism for this hole burning is a photo-physical process, that is, a light induced tunnelling moti on of protons contained in the sample.
