Phonon studies of Cr3+in GaP and InP: evidence for orthorhombic Jahn-Teller systems

Abstract
The thermal conductivity of GaP(Cr) and InP(Cr) has been found to be very sensitive to uniaxial stress. The strong phonon scattering attributable to Cr3+. The sensitivity observed to both E and T2 strains indicates that Cr3+ in GaP is an orthorhombic Jahn-Teller system. This may also be the case for InP but the evidence is less complete.
