The sample sintered at 1 680℃ exhibits the best optical properties, yielding a transmittance 〉75% from 900 to 1 600 nm. The Verdet constant of this sample at 632.8 nm is -108.79 rad.T-l.m-1. X-ray diffraction （XRD） results show that all of the samples have a pure garnet crystal structure without secondary phases. The microstructure of the samples reveals homogeneous grain sizes that averages 〈10μm.展开更多
