Abstract

This article describes a magneto-optical study of the faraday effect in rare-earth ferrite garnets. The Faraday effect is an odd magneto-optical effect in terms of magnetization, that is, the sign of the Faraday rotation depends on whether the direction of the light propagating in the crystal coincides with the direction of the magnetization vector M, or is antiparallel to the vector M. This circumstance underlies the well-known method of visual observation of magnetic domains in rare-earth ferrites - grenades.
