  2. Entanglement and hall viscosity

    … reviewing geometric response in the quantum Hall effect in comparison to its well-known electromagnetic response, Hall conductivity. We develop an understanding of momentum transport due to Hall viscosity in analogy to charge transport under Hall conductivity. We apply our momentum transport …

  4. DEVELOPMENT OF MAGNETO-OPTIC SENSORS WITH GALLIUM IN BISMUTH DOPED RARE-EARTH IRON-GARNET THICK FILMS

    We have investigated the Faraday effect of bismuth-doped rare-earth iron-garnets with varying doping levels of gallium from z = 1.0 to 1.35. We used lutetium to control the film's in-plane magnetic properties and found that gallium doping levels above the compensation point caused a loss of …

  6. Magnetophotonic sensor systems for fibre-optic magnetic diagnostics in tokamak fusion reactors

    … By exploiting the nonreciprocality of the Faraday effect, it is shown how fibre Bragg gratings incorporating structural defects can yield enhanced, localised measurements. An alternative scheme enables direct measurement of the magnetic circular birefringence using polarisation mode …
