Popis: The study shows the importance of internal optical transitions 2 E → 4 A 2 of the excited Cr 3+ ions used as a probe of the ceramics in the microscopic scale. The results are interpreted in terms of Cr 3+ luminescent centres and simultaneous vibrational excitations of the lattice. In presence of thermally activated disorder, the PLZT-x/95/5 ferroelectric ceramics lead to interesting spectral variations with temperature by appearance of certain vibronic sidebands observed around the pure electronic transitions. The phononic origin of the process is analysed in terms of lattice perturbation in the environment of the Cr 3+ sites.
