Terbium gallium garnet (TGG) is a kind of synthetic
magnetic field sensors
.
TGG has a high
isolators are adjustable by varying the degree to which the amount of the Faraday rotator material is inserted into the magnetic field of the device. In this way, the device can be tuned for use with a range of lasers within the design range of the device.[5]
