Analysis of the Absorption Spectrum of Ruby at High Pressures

Abstract

It is shown that at high pressures, results of absorption measurements are inconsistent with R-line fluorescence data. The observed constancy of R1-R2 splitting under hydrostatic conditions is supported by crystal field analysis. The present findings suggest the need for absorption measurements in ruby crystals under better defined stress conditions. Keywords: Fluorescence; Absorption; Crystal field analysis; Ruby; High pressure.
