  • Abstract
    Faraday rotators with short magneto-optical elements are created and experimentally studied. The magneto-optical elements are made three to four times shorter either by cooling them to nitrogen temperatures or by increasing the magnetic field. These ways are shown to increase maximum average laser power passing through the Faraday isolators up to 50 kW
