Abstract
A wide bandwidth scheme for the detection of the Faraday and Kerr effects is presented. An electrooptic modulator is utilized to give an output signal in the form of a 100% amplitude modulated carrier, and provides laser and surface noise rejection capability in a single-ended arrangement. The system configuration is such that problems of temperature sensitivity and drift associated with EO modulators have minimal effect on the overall performance.
