Abstract

The invention aims at providing a plane magneto-optical isolator which is used for overcoming the defect that the existing magneto-optical isolator is large in size and incapable of meeting the requirements of miniaturization and planarization. The plane magneto-optical isolator comprises a polarizer, a faraday rotor and an analyzer, all of which are arranged in parallel to each other in a light passing direction; the plane magneto-optical isolator is characterized in that the faraday rotor is composed of a substrate, a magneto-optical thin film layer, a first microstrip line layer, an insulating layer and a second microstrip line layer, wherein the magneto-optical thin film layer, the first microstrip line layer, the insulating layer and the second microstrip line layer are symmetrically arranged at the two sides of the substrate. The first microstrip line layer is composed of transverse microstrip lines, while the second microstrip line layer is composed of longitudinal microstrip lines, or the first microstrip line layer is composed of the longitudinal microstrip lines, while the second microstrip line layer is composed of the transverse microstrip lines. Due to the optimized design of the faraday rotor structure, the size of the magneto-optical isolator is greatly reduced and the miniaturization and planarization of the magneto-optical isolator are realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of laser communication, relates to a planar magneto-optical isolator, and in particular relates to an optimized design of a Faraday rotor in the planar magneto-optical isolator. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the development of laser communication, the interaction of light and magnetism is used to improve the performance of laser communication. The magneto-optical isolator is mainly used to prevent the reflected light in the system from affecting or even damaging the performance of the device, and it is an indispensable device in long-distance or high-speed optical fiber communication systems. [0003] The magneto-optical isolator includes a Faraday rotator, a polarizer arranged on the light incident side of the Faraday rotator, and an analyzer arranged on the light exit side of the Faraday rotator. The working principle of the magneto-optical isolator mainly uses the Faraday effect, wh...
