Faraday rotator glass has been used for magneto-optical isolator, switch, modulator and sensor. Faraday rotator glasses have been developed by LLG.
TG20 is a high Verdet constant glass in common uses.
TGP20 is characterized by a high Verdet constant and a lower nonlinear refractive index n2to avoid self-focusing in high power laser system.
