Abstract
Employing the basic law of electromagnetic wave propagation with the constitutive relation of ideal ferromagnetic medium, the magneto-optical Kerr effect of linearly polarized plane wave on the surface of ideal ferromagnetic medium is studied. We also discuss the change law of the Kerr rotation angle with the incident angle and magnetic-field strength in detail, which can provide crucial information for the applications of the magneto-optical Kerr effect in many fields.
