The changes of the optical absorption spectra of Cr,Mg:YAG epitaxial film caused by high-temperature redox treatment are investigated by means of in situ spectroscopy. The spectra were registered in the visible and near-IR spectral regions at temperatures up to 1100 K. The kinetics of optical absorption changing were obtained in the temperature range from 936 K to 1091 K and were described by mathematical model connecting the chromium recharging process with oxygen vacancies diffusion. The parameters of the model were determined from the approximations of the experimental kinetics. |
