Description

Magnetic garnets containing Co3+ at a tetrahedral site exhibit Faraday rotation. The temperature dependence of the rotation has recently been measured, and an attempt was made to describe the mechanism of the rotation. An error in the theoretical calculation led to significant disparity between the experimental results and the theoretical predictions of the model. Several of the distinct features of the spectra were missing. We apply the same mechanism to show that the features are described better than previously suggested
