Abstract

The synthesis temperature due to bismuth and bismuth, aluminum-substituted yttrium iron garnet (Bi:YIG, Ya_xBi_xFe₅O₁₂, Bi, Al:YIG, Y_3-xBi_xFe_5-yAl_yO₁₂) films prepared by sol-gel process were investigated. The synthesis temperature of garnets tends to decrease with increasing Bi content. The maximum Bi substitution x and Al substitution y are about 2.0 and 0.8. The Faraday rotation angle ((theta) _F) of the films prepared by dip-coating were found to be very large values 50 deg/micrometers for YBi₂Fe₅O₁₂ and 57 deg/micrometers for YBi₂Fe_4.6Al_0.4O₁₂.
