Kopsavilkums

The origin of difference in the colors of two gemstones – red ruby Al₂O₃:Cr³⁺ and green emerald Be₃Al₂(SiO₃)₆: Cr³⁺ is explained by analyzing the crystal field effects. It is shown that the stronger crystal field in ruby and the significantly greater low-symmetry component of crystal field in emerald are the main sources of the observed color difference. Calculated energy levels of the Cr³⁺ ions in both materials agree well with the experimental results.
