Faraday Rotator Optics 
Large Aperture Faraday Rotator Optics 
Obviously the most important elements in a Faraday Rotator and Optical Isolator are the Faraday Rotator Rods which made of Magneto Optic Glass 

The characteristics that one looks for in a Faraday Rotator Optics, include a high Verdet constant,low absorption coefficient,low non-linear refractive index and high damage threshold. Also,to prevent self-focusing and other thermal related effects,the optics should be as short as possible.The two most commonly used materials for the wavelength 400-1600 nm range are terbium doped borosillicate glass (Tb glass) and terbium gallium garnet crystal (TGG),but TGG crystal can't grow large size and too expensive.
In general,most of Faraday Rotator Elements are produced by type MR3-2 glass considering the cost.

Now we have some finished large aperture rods in stock.
