The spectroscopic and laser properties of Fe:Cd1-xMnxTe with a various amount of manganese Mn (x = 0.1, 0.52, 0.68, and 0.76) were investigated in a broad temperature range from 77 to 300 K. The increase of Mn content in the Fe:Cd1-xMnxTe crystals was shown to result in an almost similar long-wavele...
