The melt growing of ZnSe crystals doped with Cr²⁺ for tunable mid-IR (2-3 μm) lasers has been described. A good quality crystal material with high homogeneity of both composition and physical properties has been obtained. The optimum concentration of dopant has been estimated. For an active element...
