Abstract: A study was made of a tunable laser with a new active medium in the form of a chrysoberyl crystal activated with trivalent titanium ions (BeAl₂O₄:Ti³⁺). Lasing due to the ²E–²T₂ electronic-vibrational transition in Ti³⁺ was observed in the wavelength range 0.7–0.9μ when the active medium was pumped by the second harmonic of a YAG:Nd³⁺ laser (0.5μ).
