摘要：
The geometric phase is determined for the Faraday rotation. In the Faraday process the wave propagation direction is fixed, while the polarization of the light is rotated by the magneto-optic activity of the medium. Correspondingly, it is shown that the geometric phase equals pi when the polarization vector is transported by a full cycle on the equator of the Poincare sphere. The Faraday rotation turns out to be a complete optical analogue of a spin-1/2 particle in a magnetic field.
