The photonic Hall effect (PHE) in ferrofluids arises from magnetic particle orientation. This study experimentally and theoretically investigates PHE dependence on particle concentration, magnetic field, and light polarization in liquid and gelled samples.

Area of Science:

  • Optics
  • Magnetism
  • Materials Science

Background:

  • The photonic Hall effect (PHE) is a phenomenon observed in optically active materials.
  • Ferrofluids, colloidal suspensions of magnetic nanoparticles, exhibit unique optical properties influenced by magnetic fields.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To experimentally and theoretically investigate the photonic Hall effect (PHE) in liquid and gelled ferrofluids.
  • To understand the role of magnetic particle orientation in PHE.
  • To analyze the dependence of PHE on various parameters like particle concentration, magnetic field, and light polarization.

Main Methods:

  • Experimental measurements of PHE in ferrofluid samples under varying conditions.
  • Theoretical modeling using a scattering matrix and single scattering approximation.

  • Characterization of ferrofluids as anisotropic and absorbing Rayleigh scatterers (Fe2CoO4 particles).
  • Main Results:

    • PHE is confirmed to be driven by the orientation of magnetic moments of Fe2CoO4 particles.
    • The study quantifies the dependence of PHE on scatterer concentration, magnetic field strength, and incident light polarization.
    • Experimental results are compared with predictions from the developed theoretical model.

    Conclusions:

    • The orientation of magnetic moments in ferrofluids is a key factor in generating the photonic Hall effect.
    • The developed model provides a good approximation for understanding PHE in these systems.
    • The findings contribute to the understanding of light-matter interactions in magnetic colloidal suspensions.
