Magnetic Prozimity Effect in Isolator Crystal Pairs

摘要：

We experimentally study the polarization dynamics (orientation and ellipticity) of near infrared light transmitted through magnetooptic Yttrium Iron Garnet isolator crystal pairs using a modified balanced detection scheme. When the pair separation is in the sub-millimeter range, we observed a proximity effect in which the saturation field is reduced by up to 20％. Calculations using a 1D model suggest that the proximity effect originates from magnetostatic interactions between the dipole moments of the isolator crystals.
