Abstract: An investigation was made of the luminescence spectra and lasing parameters of a calcium niobium gallium garnet crystal activated with chromium and erbium. The lifetimes of the upper ⁴I_11/2 and lower ⁴I_13/2 active levels of the Er³⁺ ions were determined. The lasing parameters of the crystal (λ_las = 2.71 μm) were determined under free-running conditions at room temperature.
