Abstract
When applying uniaxial stress on Cr4+:Y2SiO5 a pseudo-splitting of the electronic origin at 8709 cm-1 is observed. Further more, the electro nic origin and the broad emission band were very sensitive to stress. In contrast, the splitting of the excited state doublet remained nearl y unchanged under stress.
