Abstract
Luminescence, decay-times and EPR spectroscopy of Cr-doped ZrSiO4 show the
presence of both Cr3+ and Cr5+ active centers, which can be connected with
Zr4+ and Si4+ adjacent two-cation replacement. Cr5+ emission occurs within
a similar spectral range as for Cr4+ and hence confusion is possible. (C) 2
