Abstract: The low-temperature behavior of optical and magneto-optical properties of microcavity 1D-MPCs with the Bi, Gd, Al-substituted YIG cavity layers of different compositions including compositions with a magnetic compensation temperatures were investigated. The optical transmittance and position of the resonant peaks in optical transmittance and the Faraday rotation spectra were found to be independent of temperature in all types of 1D-MPCs. The temperature dependence of changing the sign of Faraday rotation experienced the hysteresis with a value 8 K in one of two investigated MPCs with magnetic compensation temperature, while in the another MPC the hysteresis did not exceed 1 K. The possible origins of these properties are discussed.

Abstract: Temperature dependence of magnetic characteristics of Fe and Fe-Ni invar is considered in the dynamic nonlocal approximation of the spin-fluctuation theory. Numerical calculations show that the magnetic characteristics can have a discontinuous jump at high temperatures, well below the Curie temperature. Using methods of the catastrophe theory, we investigate the effect of small changes in the initial data on the results of the calculation. It is demonstrated that the discontinuous jump can only be smoothed but cannot be eliminated entirely without a significant change in the system of equations of the spin-fluctuation theory. Possible variants of such changes are discussed.
