These results indicate that the trap depth of Yb3+ becomes deeper and that of Cr3+ becomes shallower with increasing pressure. Based on the pressure-dependence of the luminescence quenching and the trap depth change estimated from the decay slopes, the relative electronic energies of the CB bottom and the Yb2+ (4f14) or Cr2+ (3d4) levels are discussed. The CB bottom energy is increased relative to the ground 1S0 state of Yb2+ with increasing pressure, which results in deepening of the electron trap depth of the Yb2+ state.
