High-quality magneto-optical ceramics (Tb<i><sub>x</sub></i>Y<sub>1-<i>x</i></sub>)₂O₃ (<i>x</i> = 0.5⁻1.0) with a Bixbyite structure were extensively investigated for the first time. The total performances of these ceramics were far superior to those of commercial TGG (Tb₃Ga₅O<sub>12</sub>) crystal, which is regarded as the highest class of Faraday rotator material. In particular, the Verdet constant of Tb₂O₃ (when <i>x</i> = 1.0) ceramic was the largest-495 to 154 rad·T<sup>-1</sup>·m<sup>-1</ ...[more]
