Abstract
We study magneto-optical coupling in a ferrimagnetic sphere resonator made of yttrium iron garnet. We find that the resonator can be operated in the telecom band as a polarization-selective optical modulator. The input state of polarization (SOP) contributing to the Stokes sideband is orthogonal to the one contributing to the anti-Stokes sideband. In the region of single sideband modulation, the SOP of both sidebands is nearly orthogonal to the SOP of the incident light. Intermodulation gain can be employed in the nonlinear regime for amplification.
