Polycrystalline bismuth- and aluminum- substituted dysporsium and yttrium iron garnet (Bi2R3-xAlyFe5-yO12, R=Dy or Y, $0\leqx\leq3, \; 0\leqy\leq3$) films have been prepared by pyrolysis. The crystallization temperatures, the solubility limit of bismuth ions into the garnet phase, and magnetic and magneto-optic properties of the films have been investigated as a function of bismuth and aluminum concentration. It was found that the crystallization temperatures as a function of bismuth and aluminum concentration. It was found that the crystallization temperatures of these films rapidly decreased as bismuth concentration. It was found that the crystallization temperatures of these films rapidly decreased as bismuth concentration (x) increased up to x=1.5 and then remained temperatures of these films rapidly decreased as bismuth concentration (x) increased up to x=1.5 and then remained unchanged at x>1.5, whereas, showed no changes as aluminum concentration (y) increased up to y=1.0 and then gradually increased at y>1.0. The solubility limit of bismuth ions was x=1.8 when y=0 but increased to x=2.3 when y=1.0. It was demonstrated that the magnetic and magneto-optic properties of the dysprosium iron garnet films could be tailored by bismuth and aluminum substitution suitable for magneto-optic recording as follows. The saturation magnetization and coercivity data obtained for the films indicated that the film composition at which the magnetic compensation temperature became room temperature was y=1.2 when x=1.0. Near this composition the coercivity and the squareness of the magnetic hysteresis loop of the films were several kOe and unit, respectively. The Curie temperatures of the films increased with the increase of x but decreaed with the increase of y, and was 150-$250^{\circ}C$ when x=1.0 and y=0.6-1.4. The Faraday rotation at 633 nm of the films increased as x increased but decreased as y increased, and was 1 deg/$\mu\textrm{m}$ when x=1.0 and y=1.0. Based on the data obtained, the appropriate film composition for magneto-optic recording was estimated as near x=1.0 and y=1.0 or $BiDy_2AlFe_4O_{12}$.

We attempted to fabricate a new type of magneto optic spatial light modulator (MO-SLM) for multiple-tone modulation by using in-plane magnetization. In the MO-SLM, magnetic property of magneto-optical layer was modified to be suitable for multiple-tone expression by substituting Al in Bi:YIG film. At a driving current to 28 mA in an electrode of the fabricated MO-SLM, changes in brightness of pixels were observed using a polarization microscope.

자기광학(magneto-optical, MO) 효과가 우수한 광학소재는 자기장센서, 광전류센서, 광 고립기(optical isolator), 그리고 광서큘레이터와 같은 다양한 응용 분야에서 활용될 수 있어 많은 관심을 받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 일반적인 유리용융법을 사용하여 Dy³⁺ 이온이 고농도로 함유된 알루미노보로실리케이트(alumino-borosilicate, ABS) 광학유리를 제조하고, Dy³⁺ 이온 농도에 따른 ABS-Dy 유리의 열 특성, 광 특성 및 자기광학 특성을 분석하였으며 1550 nm 파장 대역에서 유리의 MO 특성을 패러데이 회전각 측정을 통하여 분석하였다. 패러데이 회전각은 유리의 Dy³⁺ 이온 농도가 증가함에 따라 선형적으로 증가하는 것으로 나타났으며, 특히 Dy₂O₃ 함량이 30 mol%인 유리는 -6.86 rad/(T·m) 가량의 높은 베르데 상수를 갖는 것으로 확인되었다. 또한 제조된 ABS-Dy 유리는 128 ℃ 이상의 우수한 열안정성(∆T= T_x-T_g)과 파장 대역이 각각 490-710, 1390-1560, 1800-2400 nm일 때 70% 이상의 높은 광투과특성을 보여주었다. 이상의 높은 베르데 상수와 우수한 열안정성은 본 연구에서 제안한 ABS-Dy 유리가 1550 nm MO 소자용 광학소재로 사용 가능함을 시사한다.

본 논문에서는 편광 유지 광섬유의 일종인 spun 광섬유의 고유 복굴절 및 자기 광학 효과에 의한 편광 특성을 이론적으로 해석하고 실험하였다. Spun 광섬유의 고유 복굴절을 나타내는 평광도는 최소 0.818 이상으로 측정되었고 입력 편광각에 대한 출력 편광각의 변화는 9$^{\circ}$ 이내로 측정되어 단일 모드 광섬유의 편광 특성에 비해 spun 광섬유가 매우 우수한 편광 유지 특성을 갖음을 알 수 있었다. Spun 광섬유로 구성한 전류 측정 시스템은 솔레노이드로 인가된 0,000A/m까지의 자계 강도를 선형적으로 측정 가능 하였다.
