Magneto-Optic Polymers.

Abstract

This was a short study aimed at looking into the feasibility of a new approach to realising a truly transparent magneto-optical material; namely fine magnetic particles dispersed in a polymer matrix. Particulate magnetic materials in a range of sizes, shapes and chemical forms were dispersed in a variety of polymer matrices, principally styrene. The samples were examined for the effect of magnetic field on their transmission of light. Although the samples were satisfactorily made, no significant magneto-optic effects were observed. (Author)
