  • Magneto-optical (MO) materials have attracted much attention, since they can be utilized for various optical applications, such as magnetic field sensors, optical current sensors, optical isolators, and optical circulators. In this study, alumino-borosilicate (ABS) glasses with high concentrations of Dy3+ ions were fabricated by a conventional melt-quenching technique, and the dependence of their thermal, optical, and magneto-optical properties on Dy3+ ion concentration was investigated. The MO property of the glasses was investigated by measurement of Faraday rotation at 1550 nm. The Faraday rotation angle increased linearly with the increase of Dy3+ ion concentration in the glasses. A very high Verdet constant of -6.86 rad/(T·m) was obtained for glass with a Dy3+ ion concentration of 30 mol%. In addition, the ABS-Dy glasses showed good thermal stability of greater than 128 ℃ against crystallization, and high optical transmission of 70% in the visible to near-infrared windows of 480-720, 1390-1560, and 1800-2400 nm. Due to the high Verdet constant and good thermal stability, the ABS-Dy glasses in this study could be candidate optical materials for MO device applications at 1550 nm.
