Abstract :
Summary form only given. In this paper we report new spectroscopic results of Cr/sup 2+/ doped Cd/sub 1-x/Mn/sub x/Te laser crystals, focusing on the mid-infrared absorption and luminescence properties. In addition, initial results of the mid-infrared luminescence from Cr:CdTe, Co:CdTe and Co:Cd/sub 1-x/Mn/sub x/Te are presented.
