Abstract

The 8 × 8 magneto-optical matrix has been derived to discuss the Faraday rotation (FR) effect, which is induced by the linear polarization wave passing through a sandwich structure composed of a dielectric layer and two identical Weyl semimetals (WSMs). The giant enhanced FR angle about 45° can be realized at the resonant tunneling wavelength of right hand circularly polarization (RCP) waves by enlarging the difference of the resonant tunneling wavelength of RCP and left hand circularly polarization waves suitably. It is shown that the resonant wavelengths depend on the Weyl node separation and tilt degree of Weyl cones in both type-I and type-II WSMs. More importantly, there exists a tunable one-to-one relationship between the Weyl node separation and the wavelength of the resonant FR angle, as well as the tilt degree and the wavelength of the resonant FR angle, which enables the characteristic of the Weyl node separation and tilt degree. Our research reveals an available method to determine the Weyl node separation and tilt degree of Weyl cones in both type-I and type-II WSMs.
