Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) An interferometric optical isolator, employing a nonreciprocal phase shift, which can be operated under unidirectional external magnetic field is proposed. The nonreciprocal phase shift occurs in TM modes that travel in magneto-optic waveguides in which magnetization is aligned transverse to the light propagation direction in the film plane. When the traveling light waves undergo the distinct nonreciprocal phase shift in the two arms of the interferometer, the nonreciprocal characteristics can be achieved under the unidirectional magnetic field. The interferometric optical isolators with distinct layer structures or distinct arm lengths are reported.
