Properties and structure of Faraday rotating glasses for magneto optical current transducer

High heavy metal oxides (60–100 mol.%) ternary PbO–Bi2O3–B2O3 (PBB) glasses were fabricated and characterized. Using a homemade single lightway DC magnetic setup, Verdet constants of PBB glasses were measured to be 0.0923–0.1664 min/G cm at 633 nm wavelengths. Glasses with substitution of PbO by Bi2...
