Abstract
Effect of magnetic field on interaction of non-polarized light with a one-dimensional magneto-optic resonator has been investigated. Attention has been given to resonators with isotropic zero-field magneto-optic medium inside them. It has been shown that, in the presence of multi-beam interference, the Faraday effect is also observed in non-polarized light. Faraday rotation is manifested in significant changes of transmission and reflection spectral characteristics of the resonator in magnetic field. It has been ascertained that magnetic field substantially changes the interferential pattern for transmission and reflection of non-polarized light. The results of investigations show the possibility to use the magneto-optical resonators and resonator structures for controlling external non-polarized light passing through them.
