摘要
We demonstrate an optical current sensor that is based on the Faraday effect in gallium-substituted yttrium iron garnet and has a measured sensitivity of approximately 3-degrees/A, a noise-equivalent current of approximately 220 nA/square-root Hz, and a -3-dB bandwidth of approximately 2.6 MHz. The bandwidth-sensitivity product is a factor of approximately 10 greater than that of an all-silica-fiber current sensor with the same diameter.
