ABSTRACTGarnet films based on (BiPrGdLu) (FeGa) have been grown on (210) and (100) oriented SGGG substrates. (210) films with an easy plane of magnetization provided optimal imaging contrast. Incorporation of Au nanoparticles into an epitaxially grown film was done and these films show an increase in Faraday rotation, ostensibly due to the plasmon resonance effect.

ABSTRACTThe fabrication of one-dimensional magnetophotonic crystals (MPC) composed from Bi-substituted yttrium-iron-garnet films separated by the silicon oxide layers is presented. The enhancement of the Faraday rotation angle is observed at the spectral regions of the photonic band gap edges. The effective Faraday rotation achieves the values up to 1.5 degrees per micron at 1100-nm-wavelength.
