Band-edge enhancement of magneto-optical rotation in a 1-d polymer lattice
ORAL
Abstract
Faraday rotation, the rotation of the polarization of light propagating along an applied magnetic field, can be enhanced by modifying the dispersion relationship. We develop the theory and computational tools necessary to understand the enhancement measured in recent experiments conducted at YSU using a multilayer of polystyrene and PMMA prepared by the CLiPS NSF Center at CWRU.
