Emerald is a new broadly wavelength-tunable vibronic laser material with stimulated emission in the red to infrared due to /sup 4/T/sub 2/..-->../sup 4/A transitions of Cr/sup 3 +/. Emerald has gain from 12 050 cm/sup -1/ to 14 000 cm/sup -1/ with high gain from about 12 300 cm/sup -1/ to 13 700 cm/sup -1/. An emerald laser oscillator has been achieved, but has high losses.
