Abstract
Faraday rotation spectroscopy is a powerful experimental technique to measure the magneto-optical response of spintronic materials and devices. However, due to speed limiting components, such as polarization modulators and lock-in amplifiers, measurements become extremely challenging, in particular if (sub)micrometer spatial resolution is required. We present a high-performance broadband Faraday rotation spectroscopy technique for measurements on the micron scale. Spectral acquisition speeds of two orders of magnitude faster than state-of-the-art modulation spectroscopy setups are demonstrated. As an example, we perform Faraday rotation spectroscopy of excitons in hBN-encapsulated atomically thin WS2 and an amorphous magnetic TbFe alloy thin film.
