Abstract
The effect of pressure on the emission spectra of Tm3+:YAG and Cr3+:Tm 3+:YAG was studied. Shifts in emission peaks ranging from -0.14 to 0.5 4 angstrom/kbar were observed in Tm3+:YAG. The ability of pressure to resolve competing absorption of overlapping Cr3+ (4T1) and Tm3+ (1G4) levels has allowed us to identify previously unreported Tm3+ (1G4 --> H-3(5)) emission.
