摘要
Silica fibres doped with small (<1 mol%) concentrations of gadolinium ions have been fabricated and tested in a 1T magnetic field showing a Faraday rotation two orders of magnitude larger than that reported in conventional telecom fibres. This is the largest Faraday rotation ever reported in low-loss optical fibers and could pave the way for a new class of optical isolators. (C) 2018 The Author(s)
