Abstract

Study of magneto-optical phenomena in semiconductors often requires the production and measurement of various types of polarized infrared radiation such as linear, elliptical and circular. Some experiments requiring polarized radiation are cyclotron resonance, Faraday rotation, Voigt effect, magneto-plasma reflection effects and Kerr effect. The experiments will be described briefly with emphasis on the design of various polarizing devices which have proved useful, such as linear polarizers and quarter wave plates.
