Abstract

High power laser systems operating at mid IR wavelengths are required for medic applications, environment monitoring, and military applications. l of these systems require optic isolators to avoid feedback into the pump laser cavity. We present measurements of the Verdet coefficient of germanate glass with Dy concentrations varying from 20-50% at wavelengths between.4 and 1.5 microns. The results indicate a linear increase of the Verdet coefficient with impurity concentration and a Sellmeier like dependence on wavelength.
