Temperature dependence of the Faraday effect in As-S glass fiber.
Temperature dependence of the Faraday effect is investigated for As2S3 fiber at 3.39 microm, obtaining a Verdet constant V of 1.62 x 10(-2) min/cm x G at room temperature and a temperature-dependence term coefficient of 10.67 min x K/cm x G in the experiments. The V value obtained at 25 degrees C is consistent with the theoretical estimates based on the first derivative of known refractive indices with respect to the wavelength. The temperature-dependent term is also discussed theoretically.
