The Voigt effect is a phenomenon observed in the field of magneto-optics and materials science. It refers to the change in the absorption and refractive index of a material in the presence of a magnetic field. Specifically, the Voigt effect describes the alteration of the polarization state of light as it passes through a magnetized material.
