Abstract
It is demonstrated experimentally that at high average radiation power, the optical isolation in the recently proposed design of a Faraday isolator is substantially higher than in the conventional scheme. The Faraday isolator with the isolation of 45 dB at the radiation power of 100 W is implemented . The data obtained show that a 30-dB isolator for the average laser radiat ion power of 1 kW can be realised.
