“…For numerical calculations of T and F in a two-defect MPC we studied the structure, composed of the materials as in Ref. 9. The magnetic layers M are assumed to be Cedoped yttrium iron garnet ͑YIG͒, Ce:YIG, with n YIG = 2.21 at = 1.55 m and the off-diagonal component of the permittivity tensor ⑀Ј= 0.009 at = 1.55 m. The nonmagnetic layers N are considered to be gadolinium gallium garnet ͑GGG͒ with n GGG = 1.926 at = 1.55 m.…”
The transmission characteristics of a two-defect magnetic photonic crystal ͑MPC͒ with respect to oblique incident light are investigated, both for circularly polarized as well as linearly polarized light. It is shown that the transmittivity and Faraday rotation angle are very sensitive to a change of light propagation direction inside the MPC. Possible applications of MPCs as Faraday rotators are discussed.

We have investigated the magnetooptical properties of one-dimensional magnetic photonic crystals for the case of oblique light incidence. We developed a theoretical model based on the transfer matrix approach. We found several new effects such as transmittance resonance peak shift versus external magnetic field and the Faraday effect dependence on the incidence angle. We discuss several possible one-dimensional magnetic photonic crystals applications for the optical devices.Index Terms-Band gap defect modes, magnetic photonic crystals, oblique incidence.

“…Ce:YIG is used because it turns out to be one of the most attractive materials for practical applications due to low absorption in infrared region and large MO responses. The dielectric permittivity of SiO 2 is ε A = 2.19 and the magnetic Ce:YIG layer has dielectric tensor elements ε xx = 4.884 and ε xy = 0.009 i at telecommunication wavelength λ = 1.55 µm [14]. As it is understood from the dielectric constants, in the infrared region of electromagnetic spectrum these materials can be considered lossless, with a very good approximation.…”
Transmittance magneto-optical responses of one-dimensional magnetophotonic heterostructures are investigated using 4 by 4 transfer matrix method. It is shown that in a simple magnetophotonic heterostructure constituted of two dierent periodic structures, the enhanced Faraday rotation associated with high transmittance at a desired wavelength can be realized with specifying optimized repetition numbers and adjusting the thicknesses of the substructure layers. However, the unique features of multichanneled enhanced Faraday rotations are obtained for dierent congurations of a multiple magnetophotonic heterostructure and the most suitable one to simultaneously support the both resonance wavelengths of 1.3 µm and 1.55 µm are introduced. These wavelengths are currently used in telecommunication systems. Then the obtained results may have potential applications in designing the multi-function single magneto-optical devices such as multiple Faraday rotators and wavelength division multiplexing systems.
