Abstract
Based on measurements of the dynamics of local and phonon modes in Cr:Mg2SiO4 during the nonradiative relaxation of Cr4+ laser ions, and on the phonon and local spectrum of the analog Cr4+:Ca2GeO4 laser crystal, we propose general criteria to design higher efficiency ion-doped laser crystals
