  • Abstract
    Magnetooptic Faraday rotation in a strongly twisted single-mode fiber is measured using polarization-optical time domain reflectometry (POTDR) in which a light pulse of 904 nm wavelength makes a roundtrip along the fiber. The experimental results are in good agreement with the calculations, and the Verdet constant thus obtained is 0.86 \\times 10^{-2} min/G . cm at \\lambda = 904 nm.
