Spectral properties of YAG and YAP grown in vacuum or under ArH 2 protective atmosphere were compared. The latter contained small amounts of argon which was detected by a laser mass spectral analysis. Ar impurity evokes brown colour of unannealed crystals and strenghtens anomalous red colour of annealed (Particularly in O 2 ) YAP crystals doped with Nd + Cr or Nd + Mo. The same red coloration of the doped YAGs is less stable.
