In mixed single crystals of KCI‐RbCl: Sr and KCI‐KBr: Sr of various composition grown by the Kyropoulos‐Method Z 1 ‐and Z 2 ‐centres are produced by additive coloration and bleaching. Thus the influence of the substitution of the anions and cations on the spectral position and halfwidth of the Z 1 ‐and 2 ‐bands can be investigated investigated. In the mixed crystals the spectral position of all absorption bands deviates from the Mollwo relation (v d n = const) in a different manner for anion and cation substitution. The deviations are similar to those found by Smakula for V 1 ‐centres. The halfwidth of all bands in mixed crystals is greater than in pure systems, and the halfwidth of the Z 1 ‐centres increases by ion substitution more than that of the Z 2 ‐centres. The halfwidth of the 1:1 composition of KCl‐RbCl:Sr and KCl‐KBr:Sr is calculated using the model of Gnaedinger and compared with the measured data.
