[0003] When linearly polarized light propagates in a medium, if a strong magnetic field is applied parallel to the propagation direction of the light, the vibration direction of the light will be deflected. The deflection angle ψ is proportional to the product of the magnetic induction intensity B and the length l that the light travels through the medium, that is, ψ=V*B*l. The proportional coefficient V is called the Verdet constant, which is related to the properties of the medium and the frequency of the light wave. The deflection direction depends on the properties of the medium and the direction of the magnetic field.
