TGG terbium gallium garnet crystal (Tb 3 Ga 5 0i2, TGG) has a high Verdet constant, low transmission loss, high thermal conductivity and high laser damage threshold in the visible and near-infrared region, and it is easy to grow large-sized crystals It is currently the best magneto-optical material for making Faraday isolators and optical rotators in this band (400-1100nm, excluding 470nm-500nm). It is widely used in YAG , Ti - doped sapphire and other multi-stage amplification, ring and The seeds are injected into the laser.
