Abstract

Eu$^{2+}$ doped optical fibers were developed for magneto-optical application by use of CO gas as a reduction agent during MCVD process and the Verdet constant of the Eu$^{2+}$ doped fiber was found to be -0.819[rad/T ${\cdot}$ m], which is three times larger than that of the Eu$^{3+}$ doped fiber.
