Abstract

Bi-substituted ferrite garnet (R Bi)₃(M FE)₅O₁₂ epitaxial films with anomalously high (up to 1.2 deg/μm at RT) specific Faraday rotation provide a unique possibility of magneto-optical imaging of magnetic field microdistributions with a sub-micron resolution close to the diffraction limit. In the present work we give a detailed description of the physical principles and various applications of such films in materials science, microelectronics, magnetic testing and nondestructive evaluation (NDE) of defects in both ferromagnetic and non-ferrous metal components. In the latter case eddy-current excitation is used to reveal flaws, cracks and corrosion. The technique is ideal for not only detailed inspections, but also for rapid scanning over large areas to quickly determine structural condition of the part.
