Av. Vasil'Ev et al., Quantum yield of luminescence of a chromium ion in zinc selenide excited into the charge transfer band, OPT SPECTRO, 84(3), 1998, pp. 410-411
The quantum yield of infrared luminescence of chromium in a zinc selenide c
rystal at room temperature is determined to be 4%. Such a small value of th
e quantum yield is explained by the action of the Auger mechanism.
