Abstract
Faraday rotation is a physical phenomenon that results in the rotation of linearly polarized light when it passes through a magneto-optical (MO) material. The angle of rotation is linearly proportional to the product of an applied magnetic field and the distance light travels inside the material. The proportionality constant is called the Verdet constant. EuS is a semiconductor material that poses a very large Verdet constant at low temperatures (~6K) Its room temperature properties have not been studied so far. In this work, we measured a Verdet constant of EuS at room temperature.
