The semi-transparent EuS nanocrystal-embedded plastic films were prepared by casting the polymer solutions containing dispersed EuS nanocrystals on glass substrates. The resulting EuS-plastic films showed large Faraday effect at room temperature. The Faraday rotation peaks of the films shifted toward longer wavelength with an increase of the crystal size of EuS.
