Abstract

Quadratic and cubic nonlinear magneto-optical effects are observed in the one-dimensional magneto-photonic microcavities (MC). Magnetization-induced second-harmonic and third-harmonic generations are studied in magneto-photonic MC with microcavity spacer formed from Bi-substituted yttrium-iron garnet.
