Abstract

A spectrometer is described which allows continuous recording of four transmission magnetooptical effects: Magnetic linear and circular birefringence and magnetic linear and circular dichroism. The set-up has been used to measure magnetooptical spectra of Yttrium Iron Garnet (YIG) in the visible spectra range. Two of the spectra are reported here, namely, the magnetic linear dichroism and the magnetic linear birefringence (Cotton Mouton effect).
