High power faraday isolators and rotators using potassium terbium fluoride crystals

摘要

A high power Faraday isolator or rotator includes, at least one Faraday optical element, and a magnetic structure capable of generating a magnetic field within the at least one Faraday optical element. The at least one Faraday optical element comprises a Potassium Terbium Fluoride (KTF) crystal grown or manufactured along the [
