We plot the photodiode voltage versus angle of the polarizer with and without a magnetic field applied as shown in figure \ref{fig:directmethoddata}. It can be seen from the graph that the curve shifts a little bit, which is a direct result of the magnetic field. By applying curve fit to our data points, we find the phase shift between two curves is 4 degrees($d\theta$).
%We got 45 degrees after applying trigonometry to our previous fits since we used $cos$ function instead of $cos^2$ to fit our data in \ref{fig:directmethoddata}. This value is consistent with the value we got when we set the second derivative of $\frac{V}{\theta}$ to zero (the inflection point).
The current provided to induce a magnetic field is
-3A, $-3$A, which can be translated to $dB$ using equation \ref{magneticfield}. With these numbers, we are able to calculate Verdet constant using equation :
\begin{equation}
c_v=\frac{1}{L}\frac{d\theta}{dB}
\end{equation}
