Measurement of the infrared complex Faraday angle in semiconductors and insulators

M. -H. Kim, V. Kurz, G. Acbas +2

We measure the infrared (wavelength 11 - 0.8 microns; energy E = 0.1 - 1.5 eV) Faraday rotation and ellipticity in GaAs, BaF2, LaSrGaO4, LaSrAlO4, and ZnSe. Since these materials a…
