Abstract

Transmission polarization control spectra T(B) of YFeO₃ weak ferromagnet measured in long-pulsed magnetic fields in Faraday geometry exhibit strong effects of polarization plane rotation near the quasiferromagnetic AFMR as well as low frequency impurity modes. New ascending impurity branch including five lines was observed at high magnetic field (10 - 30 T) at 96 GHz and 140 GHz in addition to the known low-field descending impurity branch. Simulated transmission spectra reproduce well the main features of the experimental results.
