摘要
To solve the problems encountered in practical processes of magneto-optical sensing, the infinitesimal distributed-parameter model and finite-element accumulation of different dielectric properties of micromaterials were used to describe the evolution of light polarization states, instead of the previously commonly used method of lumped-parameter simulation, thus essentially explaining the mechanism of sensing, magneto-optical effects, and related factors, and achieving multiphysics coupling using the COMSOL finite-element analysis method. Considering the cases of the Faraday effect without and with line birefringence, the magneto-optical effect and output characteristics of an infinitesimal magneto-optical sensor were simulated and studied. The results verified the effectiveness of the infinitesimal sensor model. Because the magnetic field, stress, and temperature changes alter the dielectric properties of magneto-optical materials, the finite-element accumulation method lays a good foundation for research on theoretical analysis and performance of magneto-optical sensors affected by factors such as the magnetic field, temperature, and stress.
