Abstract :
Effects of the spin-orbit interaction (SO) and S4 low-symmetry crystal field on the Faraday rotation spectra (FRS) of tetrahedral Co3+ in magnetic garnets are investigated in the context of crystal field theory. The FRS of magnetic garnets containing tetrahedral Co2+ and Co3+ are also calculated. In order to explain the observed FRS of tetrahedral Co3+, (1) an SO coefficient ¿ in the range from -100 to -160 cm-1, and (2) a fairly large low-symmetry field, are required.
