Abstract
We consider the static and dynamic $\rm E \,\,* \in$ and $\rm T \,\,* \in$ Jahn-Teller effects in order to analyze the absorption and emission spectra of octahedrally coordinated V 4+ and absorption of tetrahedrally coordinated V 4+. Using two-dimensional configuration coordinate diagrams of octahedrally and tetrahedrally coordinated V 4+ we are able to explain the structure of the emission and absorption spectra and the fluorescence kinetics measurements of V 4+ doped GGG. Our calculations support the assumption that V 4+ in tetrahedral sites is responsible for the additional absorption band in the red region.
